I'm having a hard time w/ making a decision on which post-bacc program I should attend. What's your opinion?
1) Washington University in St.Louis (university college)
2) Harvard Extension School
3) Duquesne University Post Bacc
4) Postbacc or second degree @ local state school
4) None of the above. Wait until taking MCAT and apply to SMP
HES seems most affordable. They offered me an enough amounts of grants & loans. However, I heard that classes are very rigorous. I'm afraid to take a chance since I do not definitely want to screw this up. Duquesne has a linkage option, but I dunno how good the program is. Wash U was my favorite choice, but they are giving me a hard time w/ financial aid. The post bacc program @ HES and Wash U seem very similar to me (they both are the continuing education department of university). What do you think? Should I just wait until I take MCAT and apply to SMP? The thing is that I didn't take Orgo II and Calc I when I was in Undergraduate. Do SMP accept students who didn't take those two courses? What about attending a state school and do things on my own? I just thought that formal programs are more beneficial since they have a better advising and support system.
