<p>A very closed friend suggested I get advice from college confidential about my conflict. I'm not sure anymore about how I want to get my b.s. in biology or chemistry and later go on to med school. I've gone through the pamphlets and am very confused about whether I want a solid science education with heavy emphasis on research or a science education with more emphasis on liberal arts. Is there a balance between the two?</p>
<p>Start here with the College Board's definitions of different types of colleges:</p>
<p>Types</a> of Colleges - universities - community colleges - liberal arts</p>
<p>Also remember, it's very early to worry about what will be your major in college, that's what the first two years of college are for. Also, you can major in anything and still take premed coursework for med school. Take a look at the sticky threads at the top of CC's Pre-med Topics forum for more info.</p>
