Is there a balance between affordable and good academics?

<p>Don’t buy into the hype of school reputation, private/expensive does not mean much and is not worth the hassle unless you can coast on a full scholarship, or come from a very wealthy family that can afford it. </p>

<p>Do yourself a favor and go to a public school, they’re cheaper and will make your life easier. Specially if you’re not going into Medicine or Engineering.</p>
