<p>Hey guys, I've been accepted to these state schols..still waiting for the privates..I want to major in science and go into medicine</p>
<p>I know Stonybrook is good for the sciences but Bing is good overall. Considering everything from location, social life, education,dorms- Stony or Bing? which is a better choice?</p>
<p>P.S. I got a half scholarship to Stony and its a lot closer to me. (an hour away by car)</p>
<p>I would say Stonybrook, because Binghamton is in the middle of nowhere so they say.</p>
<p>It depends if you want to go farther away from ur home or closer. I would say that you would go to stony brook since you have the half scholarship.</p>
<p>Stony Brook is a commuter school so you would have no social life. However, Stony Brook is better in the sciences and has a hospital on campus. </p>
<p>It depends if youre willing to have no social life in order to have a better major.</p>
<p>I'm sure there's a social life at every college. There's lots of ppl dorming at Stony. Thanks for the replies guys. More are welcome..=)</p>
<p>Overall, Binghamton is better. But it all depends on what you're majoring in.</p>
<p>Stonybrook is good for science.</p>
<p>Stonybrook is well known for its sciences i know lots of people who went to there/or goes to IT for sciences i live about a little under a hour away from it..but according to my sister its a bad school social wise(she knows people who went to it)</p>
<p>In terms of admission, Bing is more competitive than Stony. Many smart, well-rounded students go to Bing for the pre-med track. It's more prestigious than Stony.</p>
<p>Stony is known for their sciences but it's university "where everyone gets accepted to." If you're a female, there's the WISE program (women in science and engineering). There's also the medical scholars program in Stony but I heard it's extremely selective.</p>
<p>I think the best way to decide is to go visit both of the campuses yourself.</p>
