Cornell VS univeristy of rochester VS SUNY-binghamton

<p>Which one has the best pre-med program?</p>

<p>Thanks in advance!</p>

<p>cornell has the best pre-med program (though rochester's is strong) as well as more national reputation, fantastic med-school placement rates, and an incredibly diverse student body and course offerings.</p>

<p>Are you kidding? What kind of a question is this?</p>

<p>I know Cornell is way more prestigious than the other two, but I heard many said that Rochester's pre-med is better than many ivies. Also, Binghamton is way cheaper than the previous two despite its lower ranking!
So I don't really know which way to go now! =/</p>

<p>uh i dont think u deserved to get into cornell if you're asking that kind of a question.</p>

<p>unforunately, I was accepted today!</p>

<p>"than many ivies" ... Cornell's pre-med program is among the best in the ivies. binghamton is cheaper in cost, but you'll be giving up alot of opportunities from Cornell just to save a few bucks. </p>

<p>The acceptance rate into med schools from Cornell students who have at least a 3.4 GPA is 90%. Can rochester match that?</p>

<p>Those other schools are not in the same dimension as Cornell. For serious.</p>

<p>dude, don't come to Binghamton.... I live in the immediate Binghamton area and it's awful!!! I moved here from NJ and I can't stand it!! there's nothing to di, and you will be bored out of your mind!! the only good thing is the italian food which is at least a 25 minute bus ride from the university in the town of endicott. the students are nice, but the school sucks. The campus is terrible, and the facilities are CRAP compared to Cornell. there is NO COMPARISON. trust me!!!!</p>

<p>I'm sure the pre-med programs at all those schools are fine. Visit them. Rochester somehow manages to be colder than Cornell and Binghamton (the campus and area, not the academics) blows massive chunks.</p>

<p>I have a few friends at rochester who complain that many students are ****ed off that they didn't get into a better school (same at binghamton). I guess it kind of kills the 'good school' atmosphere. </p>

<p>I think that the pre-med programs at both schools (Cornell and rochester) are very strong, but Cornell is a better choice. What if you change your mind about medicine in two years? Though rochester is very strong in engineering and pre-med, the other academic programs are lacking. At Cornell, you can fall back on over 4,000 other courses with top-ranked academic programs in almost every field. One of my friends at Rochester is neither engineering nor pre-med and he claims to have very limited options on hand. </p>

<p>In all honesty, what does rochester have that Cornell doesn't? If you say "a city" let me remind you that on one side of rochester is a cemetary, on the other is a river, and on the other side is a ghetto. Even more isolated than Cornell is in a sense. Cornell has some of the nicest and brightest students in the country, nevermind prestige. I think you'd be passing up a tremendous opportunity by not picking Cornell.</p>
