Hey guys, I made an account to ask this as I really want some advice and input. I'm deciding between going to UConn or going to Boston College. What I want to do ultimately is to go to medical school. In college I want to probably major is Psych or Bio, I'm not sure yet but that's a different question all together. What I want some input on is this: should I go to UConn or Boston College if I want to go to medical school. Before I say anything else, both financial packages are very similar, I got a lot of money from BC. So when taking this into account, money or financial situation is not a concern. So here's the thing. I LOVE BOSTON COLLEGE but for medical school I should maintain a very high GPA and I am sort of concerned that it might just be easier to do that at UConn since it is less rigorous. I am a really hardworking student and I get really high grades, but I am kind of surprised a little that I got into Boston College. No matter where I go I think that I will do well, but would I just be better off going to UConn and getting higher grades, or should I go to BC where I have MANY more benefits? Or am I just underestimating myself and could I do well in BC? I did get 4 years of housing at BC, something that they give to the top 15% of admits, but that might just be due to chance or me being AHANA. Ultimately, what seems like the better option, which one prepares me the best and where I will I have a better chance in building up and succeeding in making my application to med school.
