I've got to laugh.
I graduated from Louisana Tech (in Civil Engineering) and applied and was accepted to both LSU New Orleans and LSU Shreveport Schools of Medicine with a 29 on the MCAT and a rather low GPA.
It aint the Ivy League, but we like it just fine.
I did half of my undergraduate work at the University of Vermont. There is a difference in quality between "big name" eastern schools and no-name state schools...but its not that big a difference. I paid $4000 per year to attend Louisiana Tech and three times that at UVM. The difference is certainly not worth the extra tuition. Mickey Mouse courses are the same everywhere I believe except at UVM you get a big old helping of political correctness and extra credit if you love homosexuals, Native Americans, and minorities.
I would have applied to UVM medical school except I probably wouldn't have got an interview. And I am just not touchy-feely enough to survive in Vermont.
