Help deciding on a school

College Search & Selection
1

<p>I have completed my associates degree at my local community college. I applied to a few schools and got into the follow ones: St Johns University, CUNY City College and possibly Manhattan College. I am going for my Bachelors in Biology because I want to do pre-med. Does anyone know which school would be best? Does going to a more prestigious/expensive school increase my chances of getting into pre-med? Is it based on which school has a better science program? I've heard city college has a great science program. St.Johns and Manhattan are known more for their Pharmaceutical and Engineering programs respectively. </p>

<p>Can you guys please help me decide on which school to choose? I feel really pressured and I'm not sure if I should take out loans for these schools unless it's going to pay off. Help!</p>

<p>To be honest with you I would choose City College. Although the other 2 schools are good, they aren’t associated with what you want (not to say they don’t have it). Although they all have your major and a pre-med track I believe City is more well known for it. I think the best thing to do is save money for med school and by going to City you definitely would. City has a great science program and opens a lot of doors for research. </p>

<p>Just my personal opinion. Good luck with whatever you choose!</p>
