<p>Binghamton and Buffalo are the SUNYs I am applying to as safety.</p>
<p>Binghamton?</p>
<p>Stony Brook is extremely underrated for science, especially pre-med, however for business i think buffalo is better</p>
<p>I would say Stonybook and Binghamton..HANDS DOWN..the rest are kinda...just there</p>
<p>I always thought Bing is the best SUNY for business and Stony Brook is better for the sciences.</p>
<p>What about Albany? I applied to both Albany, Buffalo, and Stony Brook. Which do you think is better for Biology?</p>
<p>generallly
1. bing
2. stony
3. buffalo/albany</p>
<p>but for the sciences
1. stonybrook
2. everything else</p>
<p>for biology = stonybrook</p>
<p>admission to stonybrook is easy but maintaining good grades there is hard. the cirriculum is actually quite challenging.</p>
<p>Thanks. I guess if I get accepted to my SUNY picks, I'll pick Stony Brook. Although, I don't know what to pick if I get accepted to all the schools I applied to (probably not happening). I still have Rutgers New Brunswick, Penn State (Univ Park and Altoona), UMass Amherst, OSU Colorado, NYU (for the hell of it) and JHU (for the hell of it).</p>
<p>No Geneseo, chibifry??</p>
<p>no Geneseo
Its not good</p>
<p>I was shocked to find out that Geneseo's average SAT (1252) is 90 points higher than James Madision's which seems to have a more universially accepted rep.</p>
<p>Geneseo is one of the top SUNY, chibifry....</p>
<p>I'm applying to Stony Brook and Binghamton (as far as SUNY schools go). They are great schools. However, I do consider those my safety schools (what with all of the Ivy league schools I've applied to!!) Good luck to everyone!!</p>
<p>How do people allow themselves to go to Binghamton? Its in the middle of nowhere...maybe its because I'm a NYC boy. Albany has a top ranked economics program...just found out yesterday.</p>
<p>Binghamton is a pretty reputable SUNY school. Location isn't 100% of what prospective applicants should consider. Yeah, I think it is just b/c you're a NYC boy, lol. I'm a LI boy, and it seems fine to me. Good luck to everyone! :)</p>
<p>Good luck to you, too. I really hope I get in Stony Brook. If I get in Rutgers too, I'll have a very hard decision to make...</p>
<p>Although I'm forgetting I also applied to PSU. Decisions decisions...</p>
<p>Thanks funkdoc. Since I got deferred at Harvard, it's making the Regular Decision applications that much mroe stressful!! I should have applied to some other schools Early Action/Decision... and perhaps some rolling admissions. The security that comes with knowing that you're in some place must be very reassuring. That's what I was hoping for w/ Harvard. Being deferred is like being left in limbo. They leave you hanging, and all you have is a small rate of acceptance to cosider (which is not the most reassuring thing at all)! Oh well, guess I'll have to wait until April huh ;) !</p>
<p>Ranking the SUNYs:
1. Binghamton
2. Geneseo
2. Stony Brook/Buffalo
3. SUNY College of Environmental Science and Forestry
4. Albany (worst quality of life of all 20 SUNYs though)
5. Purchase/New Paltz (I'm sorry New Paltz is a bit of a bias :))
6. Oswego
7. Oneonta</p>
<p>I'm not particular on any of the rest except I do know Cortland and Cobleskill.</p>
<p>I think Oswego is worse than oneonta...</p>
<p>Cre8tive1, what do you mean by "worst quality of life"? Can you be more specific?</p>
