Texas Tech Honors College vs TCU - premed

College Search & Selection

Hi,

I am a current senior in the class of 2021. My college decision process has been pretty stressful this year considering college creeps up on you so fast! My decision needs to be made by May 1st (this Saturday) and I need a little help. I’m very last minute at this point.

I will be a biology major with aspirations to go to medical school after undergrad. I have narrowed it down to two schools: Texas Tech (honors college) and TCU. Which one would be better for someone who wants to pursue a career in medicine/earn an MD?

Is it worth it to go to an expensive school like TCU over Texas Tech’s Honors? Pros and cons?

Any help would be much appreciated!

It’s worth it if you want the more likely individualized attention.

But your GPA and MCAT is all that matters - so if you can get that at TT and Honors, then save the $$ and go there.

You just have to suffer living in a yucky town :slight_smile:
