Before I start I'd like to thank you for supplementing your time to help me out.
I have a dilemma. I am deciding whether to attend University of California Irvine or a state school California State Northridge.
If am to attend CSUN (Cal State) I will save a substantial amount of money on tuition and living expenses and I will be able to continue my volunteering at two distinguished hospitals in which I have built an ample amount of relationships with doctors and nurses whom are willing to give me recommendation letters and allow me to shadow them. Additionally I feel that I will have more opportunities to do other EC because LA is fully of potential options for research and what not.
However my dilemma is that CSUN is a State University and I am planning to apply to top Medical Schools and I have heard that they somewhat see state schools as inferior to other Universities.
Essentially my is question should I attend a higher end school or a state school considering its benefits for me.
