Most of those schools don't have medical schools -- so would be impossible places to "major in medicine."

Medical school is a graduate program -- and people don't usually talk about majoring in it. If you are actually interested in a pre-med program, then I would suggest Michigan, UNC-Chapel Hill and UConn (in that order). The other schools aren't particularly good universities -- and if you want to go to medical school, it is a good idea to go to the best school possible.

I disagree. Unless you are trying to get into a top medical school, it is much more important to do well in college than have a big name college degree. I am in a medical school class with people that did all their prereqs at little no name colleges, because smaller class size generally mean better learning. If you really want a particular med school you would generally want to go there for undergrad, but grades and MCAT scores are MUCH more important than the college that gave them to you. So unless you got accepted to a combined BS/MD program somewhere ( I know a few schools like Brown have them) chose the school you can excel at.

Ditto the above. University of Michigan is probably cream of the crop as far as medical school quality.
