<p>How many people have decided where they are going??</p>
<p>Mine:
Chance of going to Case: 99.9999%
Coming from: CT
Intended Major: BME
Other Colleges on the list: BU, UC-SD, WPI, UConn.</p>
<p>chance of going: 99.000</p>
<p>other places accepted: umich, johns hopkins, washu, duke, gatech, carnegie</p>
<p>why am i going: trustees scholarship and..i like it</p>
<p>Already enrolled. Best school I got into and best scholarships too. Really a no-brainer for me.</p>
<p>Already enrolled too. Best school i got into, plus i am in the PPSP program (though how i don't know... considering i wasnt even offered a scholarship).</p>
<p>I'm 80% sure I'm going. I had a talk with my genius uncle, and he told me that my best bet with physics was to go to Case.</p>
<p>about 2% going. no scholarships, too expensive. or else, i would've loved to go.<br>
either going to tulane or george washington.</p>
<p>Jediknight05, I was wondering how you chose case over the others cuz I got accepted to similar schools as you and Im deciding between bu and case and Im having a difficult time choosing. Just wanted to know how you reached our decision. THanks</p>
<p>Well, I went by lots of statistics. Case, for my major, is a great school, ranked #4 (in BME). Also, Case seemed to output more graduate students than any of my other schools. Plus, the financial package was great (I didn't even bother applying for financial aid at BU). I was thinking about UC-SD, but saddly, they enrolled me in their Winter quarter. I didn't want to take a semester off, since I wouldn't know what to do with myself if I did that. Plus, being in CT, 'rents sort of forced me to stay a little closer. But, I think the decision about Case was based on my major, since BME is really good there, and when I visited there, I felt that school was a pretty good match for me.</p>
<p>What are you planning on majoring in? Maybe that might lead to one of your schools...</p>
<p>Im planning on majoring in BME as well. Sorry about not stating that earlier.</p>
<p>For that reason, I think Case is definately a better school. It was nationally ranked higher than BU, and seems to be a very engineering-oriented school as well, although they have many other programs. It all depends on what you want to do outside of school as well. Have you visited BU? Or Case? I think they have very different types of things to offer. Case seemed like a lively school, but did not have the "wildness" that BU might (I've never been to BU, but just saying from what I've heard). You still 12 days...lol good luck.</p>
<p>Most likely not going
Had trustee scholarship but no PPSP interview
99% going to Northwestern HPME (They dont have scholarships)</p>
<p>Chance of going to Case: 99%
Coming from: NY
Intended Major: Biology and political science (maybe international relations?)
Other Colleges on the list: Cornell, Dartmouth, wait listed at harvard, UConn's 8 year program, RPI and Union's 7 year programs.</p>
<p>Wow, turning down an Ivy for Case...must've been a tough decision.</p>
<p>lol....yeah it really is a hard decision. but i gotta pick somewhere in the end, and it's looking more and more like case.</p>
<p>I'd love to meet you man ... or woman.</p>
<p>cyan516- what are the 8 and 7 year programs you are talking about?</p>
<p>squee- they're med programs. but i'm not sure if i want to go to one of those over an ivy yet.</p>
<p>that is what i though... i cant believe you are seriously going to Case (99%) when you got into med programs. True, i don't know how good those schools are... but a med school is a med school (there is only like a 125 out there anyways) so it is better to get in one now rather then worry about Mcats and applications and possible rejections later. </p>
<p>That's my thoughts atleast...</p>
<p>lol. i should have been clearer on this earlier. sorry for that! i got into case's 8 year program, that's the only reason that i'm thinking of going there. if i didn't get into the program i wouldn't even consider it. but case's med school is ranked really well (20th i think?) and there are no MCATs, so....it's really tempting lol.</p>
<p>oh cool! that makes more sense (i was like no way someone would turn down a 7/8year med program). I got into the PPSP program there too! it's the reason i am going there... otherwise my family and i wouldn't even trying to pay the price tution and room&board at Case(though i am still freaking out about how much debt i am gonna come out with). What day was your interview on?</p>
<p>Case's med school is 20... which is the same as northwesterns (which is the med school that i would love to go to because I love the hospital and it's in downtown chicago... but hopefully Case's is nice). UofC, my other preferred med school is 19. But i dont even think i am going to take the mcats (at least i dont want to right now).</p>
