<p>I have two choices, either Washington University in St. Louis or the University of Southern California in which I was accepted into the freshman science honors program. Which university will give me the greatest chance of getting into a top medical school and why. Obviously, it is important for the school to have good advising and plentiful opportunities for extracurriculars like research, shadowing, community service and internships. I know that if I put in the same amount of effort at either school, I will probably get a higher GPA at USC. But a lower GPA at WashU may be better than a higher GPA at USC. Please give specifics on why you think either one is better.</p>
<p>P.S. I was not admitted into the integrated med program at either university.</p>
