which ones are beter?

<p>i am having troulbe deciding between a couple of colleges. i am a high school junior and am most likely going to apply to claremont mckenna, macalester, university of michigan, and university of minnesota. i was wondering of the the 4 colleges below, which two I should pick to apply to if i want to pursue studies in business or medicine? (my dad says i can only apply to 6 colleges) </p>

<p>university of colorado
ohio state university
university of wisonsin
university of southern california
cornell </p>

<p>all answers welcome, please help! or if you know of any other colleges that i should consider please let me know. :)</p>

<p>So, you’re applying to Claremont McKenna, Macalester, UMich and University of Minnesota. </p>

<p>Are you in-state for Minnesota, UMich, or any of your other public university choices?</p>

<p>Wait…I’m confused.</p>

<p>i am not in state for any of those schools–i live in washington state and my dad went to U of MN, and cost is not really an issue.</p>

<p>Since the US isn’t a commonwealth country, medicine is not an undergraduate topic of study, and business isn’t an undergraduate major at many schools.</p>

<p>However, if you’re interested in a strong pre-med or pre-business (i.e. pre-MBA) curriculum and a school with high admit rates for medical school (allopathic and/or osteopathic) and business (i.e. MBA, MSF etc.), then of the listed 5 (not the first few that aren’t listed vertically) Cornell and Wisconsin are probably the two strongest, followed by USC, Colorado, and OSU.</p>

<p>I agree with NewEngSoSciMan. Cornell is probably the strongers of the five, followed by Wisconsin-Madison. Third would probably be USC. Colorado and OSU are about equal.</p>

<p>Cornell and USC are the best on htat list</p>

<p>wait what grade are you in</p>

<p>

U Washington should be on your list then.</p>

<p>

That’s why I’m confused…from 8th grade to 11th grade in one year? Are you a prodigy, or homeschooled?</p>

<p>Cornell and then USC/Wisconsin altho Madison is extremely strong in the sciences if that’s what you are interested in. The feel between the schools is very different though as is the size and climate. I work for UW-Madison and my son graduated in May from USC. OSU/Colorado.</p>

<p>All these schools are pretty good.</p>

<p>okay this aco**** is shared by my younger sister (the 8th grader) and I, who am in 11th grade.</p>
