<p>trigonometry - hahaha, I AM at the UofC

<p>Thanks for the replies.
I understand that prestige means next to nothing at some point, but I want to know what it’s like to “step down” from undergrad to med school. My friends and I have spoken about it - most of us have come to terms with the fact that UPenn, Hahvahd, and UCSF are completely out of reach for us…and it’s a little unsettling.
I would be ecstatic if I got into Rush - it’s more than likely going to be my top choice. I just don’t know if it would be weird to end up there and not Pritzker or Feinberg.
I’ll just have to reevaluate my ideas about this whole process.
Thanks guys.</p>
<p>Oh, mcat2 - I’m majoring in Bio with a specialization in either microbiology or immunology - I haven’t quite decided yet. My problem so far hasn’t been with bio; I’ve rocked that class and really enjoy it. It’s everything else that’s bogging me down. I think I’d really like a position in the CDC or NIH…so I’m looking into REUs and other internships to help get me started in that direction.</p>
