Any opinions??

Cost alone screams Baylor...

Prestige screams Baylor...

Grading System screams Baylor...

Texas Medical Center screams Baylor...

Curriculum Screams Baylor...

So as you can see, you should go to WF.

Yeap. I'd say Baylor in every way unless you just hate Texas.

Okay let me rephrase this. Wake Forest with money or Baylor and not really wanting to live in Houston? I mean I looked at Wake and Baylor's rankings and I've heard that the research ranking is just how much money thatthe school is getting for research. Baylor's primary care is ranked like 17 and Wake's is 22. That's really not that much of a difference, but that kinda doesn't count for me because I don't want to go into primary care. So are there any opinions now?

most of the students at wake match into primary care and that's the school's focus. if you want to do a competitive specialty, i advise you should go to Baylor because it's ranked top 15.

Not actually a true statement:

I'm hoping to get into Wake but don't let that weigh on my opinion.. between the two schools I would 100% attend Baylor over Wake. Baylor is an EXCELLENT school.

Idk...but this is a very ignorant statement right here.

Oh noes, top 17... that's like infinity worse that top 15

I wasnt referring to the top 15 part.

It seems that given the location and cost are better for Wake and the rankings are similar, Wake would be the best choice for you.
