<p>I have to agree with antikantian----Hands down, I received a superior education at Bucknell. As an '11 graduate who majored in Biology, was in a fraternity–and took some very difficult chemistry and physics courses as part of my Pre-Med program, I found that the amount of writing I did in all of my classes definitely helped me. I am taking a ‘gap year’ and working now–and was just accepted into medical school— which will begin August, 2012. During my medical school interviews this fall a number of my interviewers commented about the strength of my writing ability in my personal statement. I am very thankful of the personal attention I received at Bucknell and especially for the personal attention I received in the development of all the numerous papers I wrote during my four years–I think it helped me craft a great personal statement for med school. At Bucknell students write–a lot–and all of the time–and I am very grateful that I had the opportunity to develop my writing skill under the tutelage of many great professors in not only science courses, but also in the English and philosophy courses I took. Many of my friends were engineers–they wrote, too---------- and I know employers value that skill in those they hire. Recently, I spoke to a person in HR of an engineering firm recently and I asked him what makes Bucknell engineers different from all of the other engineers you hire–his reply–“ALL of them can write.” If you are looking for a school that will challenge you to critically think and write–Bucknell could be the place for you. I know all of my training in communication will help me beyond medical school.</p>
