Do state public schools really vary all that much from state to state?

<p>@MD Mom do you know of any colleges that have a similar program for undergrads already in college? i know that the BS/MD program is for high school students, but with my stats (3.5 UW GPA, weighted: 3.8. sat composite: 1940) i’m pretty sure i won’t be one of the most competitive applicants. i was wondering if i could get a second shot at a similar type of program once i’m already in college.</p>
