Hi SDN,
I am currently a freshmen attending Northeastern University for those who are familar with this college you would know that it is typically a five year undergraduate school due to its emphasis on Co-op, which gives you workforce exposure in your major. My dilemma in attending Northeastern is that, I wonder if this the place for me, a student who is pursuing a career as a Pediatric Surgeon.? The vibe that i get is not as supportive to those who are "pre-med" this is in quotes because pre-med is not a true major here. You just take the required courses and major in anything else. I am thinking of transferring to a college that has more supportive services for pre-med majors and that is not 5yrs. I would like anyone's input in this present situation that I am in. Also some suggestion on colleges that are geared to my intended aspirations and are also in the Boston area, Thank you all. <img src="confused.gif" border="0">
