<p>Hi all, </p>
<p>I'm currently debating whether I should transfer to tufts from BU. I am pre-med and have just completed my first year. I want to major in Neuroscience/Cognitive Sciences. According to rankings, BU stands at #60 and Tufts is at #28. But, I am not sure if I am reading too closely into the rankings. If the education for pre-med is quite comparable, I dont think I would prefer to uproot myself from my friends and the leadership positions I have attained to start all over again. But, if it will give me a more competitive edge for med school, I'll do it.
Also note, that my GPA would begin at a 4.0 again if I were to transfer, but organic chemistry is supposed to be the filter class at tufts, whereas I have already been through the filter classes at BU (i.e. Gen Chem and Gen Bio).</p>
<p>I do plan to begin research and volunteer at nearby hospitals next year! I do not have a preference for one campus style vs. the other. In short, I am not sure the change is worth it...</p>
<p>I'd appreciate any feedback! :)</p>
