I’m having so much trouble trying to decide between these schools; I love both so much.
I’m into chemistry and biology, and I want to do research in stem cells or CRISPR, and I’ve had experience in biochemistry research, which I may want to continue.
I love classical studies, and I want to conduct research on women in antiquity or science during the classical era. I’m fluent in Latin, but need help with my Greek.
I also want to study abroad, either to Athens or Rome or another area with ancient history, or perhaps to Germany or Japan, as I have always been fascinated with these countries and I’ve taught myself their languages.
I need a good pre-med program, and I hope to go to NYU or Harvard medical school (a long shot, ik) or another prestigious med school.
I also want to get involved in some science/classical studies/premed clubs and orgs, and perhaps start my own nonprofit (depending on how much time I have)
I love small class sizes, intimate and roundtable learning, building relationships with my professors
I need financial aid to conduct research, do internships, and study abroad.
I’m not really concerned about the rigor of the school, but maybe the more rigorous, the better? My stats are above the 75 percentile of both colleges.
I also need some help understanding the campus vibe–b/c of covid19, I can’t visit campus.
I really really want a great alumnae network with excellent connectivity, but both have them.
Additionally, I like having fun: walking around cities, shopping (but not spending lol), eating (anything but vegan), partying/drinking, even playing videogames or touring museums
I would also love I great support network – I’m low-income (questbridge finalist), from Tennessee, and I have no idea what I’m getting into haha
Any other nuances anyone can offer would be so amazing, please help me decide!
