Hi Everyone,

I am deciding between Tufts and Scripps (today), and I was wondering if any of you had any opinions?

I am currently living in NY, not sure if I want to be on the East or West coasts for med school.

Tufts: offers a guaranteed interview at its medical school, $11-13K cheaper, but classes are graded on a curve, and the program seems to not be considered "one of the top" like Scripps is...

Scripps: does not curve its science classes, only 17 students = more attention, beautiful and peaceful campus/lifestyle = less stress and less colds/flus, considered "one of the top", but I'd have to move cross-country, and I'm concerned about research and volunteering opportunities, more expensive, campus vibe felt YOUNG (I'm 36).

Any insights are helpful!
