Hello! I'm 20 and live with my grandmother but I commute a 40 minute drive to St Petersburg College...the last two years I've taken it easy trying to decide what path I really feel I want to take in life...and my calling to medical school has become stronger. I love Biological sciences so that would have been my major anyway. I have some interesting family dynamics and I would prefer to stay here at home living near my family while I attend college and work as a CNA, along with my weekly volunteering at Catholic Charities...it seems like I have everything set for me and all I gotta do is roll with the punches and work hard studying for my pre-med classes and my MCAT. I really want to get my bachelors degree in Biology at St Petersburg College because they offer the program and its perfectly convenient....I wouldn't have to take out any student loans because I get a full ride on the Pell Grant...However, if I had to transfer to USF...I have no clue how I'd be able to finance it without student loans and I just don't feel good about doing that. I'm a very studious person and I feel like you get of the courses what you put into them. Would getting a Biology Degree at SPC vs a University dramatically hurt my chances of getting into any in-state Medical schools? My top choice schools would be all the Medical Schools in the state of Florida.
