<p>I'm torn between these schools, and I am really having a hard time choosing even after visiting. I'm a pretty social girl, but I'm okay with UChicago's social atmosphere. What's most important is the premed programs and neuroscience programs/opportunities at these schools. I know that the MCAT is changing its whole format, so if anyone could help me figure out which of these schools will be the best to go through, that'd be really awesome.</p>

<p>About me: I'm really good at managing time. As far as school goes, I'm interested in Student Government, maybe playing a sport, singing A Capella, premed (obviously), neuroscience, languages, study abroad, and maybe greek life.</p>

<p>I know that I'll have to give up a lot of those to be able to fit in my school work, but... that's me. Thank you all so much.</p>

<p>Are costs an issue?</p>

<p>You don’t sound obviously like a Chicago person. You sound more like a WUSTL person to me. Have you checked out their PNP (Philosophy-Neuroscience-Psychology) program?</p>

<p>Chicago don’t have much greek life and they are Div III in sports, but my D is enjoying neuroscience there. But the AP5 Bio is hard and to get high score there is difficult.</p>

<p>Price isn’t a limiter because I got a lot of scholarships. Yeah I checked out the program and I thought it was alright but I liked the atmosphere of Chicago and I don’t know whether I’ll go to WUSTL for my own being happy or whether I’ll just end up going to get my research and into a good med school.</p>
