Hey everyone!
I swear, ONE more over-paranoid question from me, and then I'll be able to be peaceful (until it comes time for MCATs )
Just HOW important is the undergrad school you attend? I attend University of Louisiana-Lafayette (they thought changing the name from University of Southwestern Louisiana would automatically make it more prestigious ). Now, Louisiana is known as having the second-lowest education value in the States. Also, from mdapplicants and other sites like that, I have seen NOBODY from my university listed as accepted. I know one person who was accepted into LSU-NO, and she was the SGA President!!
Should I transfer somewhere while there's still hope (I had attended Millsaps College my first semester, but had personal problems and had to come home)? Will I ever get out of here? Heeeeelp!
I'm not crazy...really.
