<p>I'm going to go to either of these schools I hope. If i get into both, what should I do? and UNC is way cheaper because I'm in state, but Duke supposedly gives out a lot of money.
Thanks</p>
<p>Bump, I need to know thanks</p>
<p>UNC-CH because it has one of the lowest tuition in the country. It is #1 on Kiplinger’s best value college. Save your money for medical school. </p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Duke only gives money to low income students.</p>
<p>Yeah but I hear that Duke is much better for Med stuff. Just a lot more personal and interactive</p>
<p>Duke isn’t worth paying 50k a year for over UNC at (~23k?).</p>
<p>Yeah, thats kinda what I was thinking too.</p>
<p>Wait to see which you get into. If you get into both, then decide.</p>
<p>Another vote for UNC here.</p>
<p>Med school will cost you an arm and a leg. So, keep undergrad as cheap as possible. Most important thing for med school is GPA and MCAT scores. Go UNC - great reputation and will prepare you well. If Duke is free go for it, but you can not go wrong with UNC.</p>
<p>I’ve known many medical students who went to UNC for undergrad, as well as a few medical students who did their undergrad at Duke. They were all well-prepared for medical school – at least as well-prepared as one can be; it is a bear for anyone. For that matter, I’ve known quite a few medical students who went to other NC colleges and universities. They all seem to have been on fairly equal footing when they started medical school.</p>
<p>I hear that Duke is much better for Med stuff</p>
<p>??? What the heck? Undergrad isn’t teaching you about “med stuff”.</p>
<p>Take your cheapest option, which is UNC in this case. As much as it pains a life-long Duke fan to say, UNC is a great school</p>
