Having a situation you just can't decide sucks...
here is the thing: I just recently moved to SC with family and transferred here...
I got accepted into a Liberal Art University (top 10 in the South - Winthrop; anybody knows this school?) and University of South Carolina..Well..If I go to Winthrop..I dont have to worry about work and money since I live with parents...But if I go to USC then I am responsible for everything and it takes me about 1.5 hours to go home...(I got full tuition covered on both school..so just personal expenses such as room and food and transportation)..
Winthrop has a pretty good reputation - good S/T ratio and small classes you can get a lot of attention..However it's small and some research opportunities might be slim...But if I go there, I get all the time I want to volunteer (which I have been doing so far) and study..But i havent get any research experience under my belt yet.
USC is a big school so you would just have to fight for attention and stuff...ANd I worry about money..I would have to work - this will reduce the time I have available to volunteer, research, study and everything else
I guess it's a dilemma cuz I dont know which one gives me better chance to get into med school...this sucks...
Just FYI..I have a 4.0 as a Junior..
P.S. South Carolina sucks...
