<p>I didn’t mean to make this a vent post or harp about my problems…I guess I’m just over thinking everything because I really want to go to a good university …I just worry if it would be so bad that I completed Biology 1 and 2 at community college along with General Chemistry 1 & 2 …and then took my Physics, Calculus, and Org Chem requirements when I transferred…because basically I need to take my BIO now…and I plan to make Biology my major anyway…either that or Biochemistry. </p>
<p>The thing that bothers me is that I know UF is supposedly the top university in Florida…but I really don’t like the idea of having all my classes taught by TAs and not getting a really in depth understanding of what I am learning…yet…when it comes to cost…I can’t see my self able to afford a private school right now.
I also know, however, that it is often what people put into their education that they get out of it. </p>
<p>I’ve read that Smith College is very consistent with making sure transfer students get financial aid…and they are also more on the conservative side which is what I think I would prefer as opposes to New College of Florida (spectacular academics but the atmosphere seems less “me”).</p>
<p>Thanks for the pre-med guide!</p>
