<p>I have narrowed my college search down to three colleges, and would like some opinions from people. Right now I am leaning towards doing something in Pre-Med, but am not a 100% sure. My plan is to do the Pre-Med track while I major in either Business or Engineering in case I end up not seeing Pre-Med as a career choice. This way I have a good back up if I decided against Pre-Med. I am a very good student, in top 10% in a class of about 500 seniors. I am looking for a college that will help with my career choices, but at the same time, I want a fun place where I can live for four years.</p>
<p>The three colleges are as follows with pros and cons. Please offer opinions/suggestions.</p>
<p>Georgia Tech
Pros:<br>
Great city, campus, sporting scene, great weather. Out of the three, this has the best physical attractions.
Co-Op seems very useful and implemented well here. If I decided against pre-med, co-op would help a lot in engineering or business.
Great Education and Teachers overall.</p>
<p>Cons:
Only con I have besides the tuition (no scholarship or financial aid really) but $ is not an issue, is the pre-med program. It does not seem as strong as others, and at a public institution, the class sizes are larger. The pre-med program is pretty small, and doesn't seem as important to GT as Engineering or Business. Also, it is a very difficult school. Although wherever I go I will work very hard, I'm not confident that a lower gpa at GT will do me much for Medical school. GT's pre-health is a little worrisome just because it is not their specialty. </p>
<p>Also, the people are a bit weird, and no hot girls really..</p>
<p>Marquette:
Pros:<br>
Great Basketball
More of a Pre-Health institution. Smaller class sizes, and as a Jesuit College, I feel that they care more about education and also the individual. Also, they have solid engineering and business. Tuition is pretty good as well. I received big scholarships.</p>
<p>Cons: Nothing too bad. Okay city. Okay campus. Nothing compared to St. Louis or Atlanta though. Although this is not a huge issue, weather is a bit cold. Also there is not football.</p>
<p>SLU:
Pros:<br>
The city was very cool, good campus, good weather.
Again, more of a pre-health college. Jesuit advantages. Solid Business and Engineering. Good scholarships.</p>
<p>Cons:<br>
Not really known for sports. This is pretty important to me because I am a big sports fan. I want to go to a college where I can be a fan for the rest of my life. Even though this may not seem too big for other people, Saint Louis doesn't have an NBA team... Huge NBA fan, and would like to go to games in college.</p>
<p>Sorry for such a long post. I just really need to decide soon, and don't really have it figured out yet.</p>
