One more shot…I disagree with the commenters who say there is little difference between the 2 universities. Both have considerable pros and cons for you specifically as a pre-dental student (or biochemistry major). Let the overnight visit to each school be the major decider for you. During your visit, get past the sizzle and get to the steak for each school and then compare the pros and cons on a spreadsheet. Schedule a visit with one or more faculty members for each department you are interested in and the department administrator who helps undergrad majors. (Of course, I am rooting for Tech Honors.) The visit to the admininstrator who assists department majors helped my son as a high school senior decide against OU as a non-Honors student. The OU department administrator was nice, but obviously stressed with her huge workload of students to assist. He would have been more a “number” at OU. In contrast, the department administrator at Tech said: “Oh, you’re in the Honors College. You go to the head of the line…” for class registration, etc.
