No, it is not worth it.
All of our children are kicking butt to get good grades, EC’s test scores, and everything else!
Your child can achieve his/her dreams at ANY other good school.
There are so many variables and I can’t believe there are actually parents recommending huge debt!
Berkeley is known for grade deflation. The kids there can get really depressed.
Medical school is very, very expensive. There are no guarantees.
Parents: what happens if there is a major health issue or another HUGE expense? It happens in aging parents. You don’t plan for it; it just happens. The UC’s with medical schools are impacted and your child will not get priority admission, especially as a non-resident.
Recommending incurring debt is just ill-advised and irresponsible. http://talk.qa.collegeconfidential.com/financial-aid-scholarships/2137519-i-m-gonna-have-debt-anyways-so-the-amount-doesn-t-matter-ack-p1.html
