Hi I am really conflicted on where I should attend college. At GWU I would study exercise science and at BU I would study Biology, both with a pre-med track with plans to attend medical school. I like the schools equally. I visited BU and loved it and have not visited GWU but have heard many good things about it. I do prefer my major at GWU but am not opposed to majoring in bio at BU or anything else as I can probably find something I like to major in. at BU I’ve heard it’s harder to do well but it is recognized by many medical schools as being difficult and has a better reputation. At GWU I would probably we able to obtain a better GPA. Any advice or suggestion?
What is the cost difference between the two? I’d favor less debt, all other things being equal.
If you don’t get accepted into medical school, what will your plan be? Which undergraduate degree will be more valuable?
They’re both terrific cities. You have two very strong choices.
Thank you for your reply! and cost is not really a deciding factor for me. I haven’t really thought about a plan if I don’t get accepted into med school. But if you were in my place is there one you would prefer or recommend? This is a really tough decision for me because I like the schools themselves equally, so it’s the really small things I have to rely on to be deciding factors. Do you have any experience or advice on either one?
