| Lol, but nervedoctor, how hard is it to maintain that 3.3+ average? And wouldn't I need a much higher than 3.3 to get accepted into a top 20 med school like northwestern??? plus study a lot for my mcats? I must admit, i'm leaning toward NU
Also, I would DEFINITELY take that year off to do something interesting---another huggeee draw for that program
However, call me an idiot, but a big draw to Princeton is its overall aesthetic appeal--they send you a white folder, with things written in that "princeton" font with the orange and black, and the tiger silhouettes, and the invitation to the princeton day, and the personally signed admission letter...you just feel like its a special place lol
also, my grandfather and father went there, making it like a tradition sort of thing--i've been going to the school for reunions since i was three
however, my grandmother says i'd be an "effing fool" if i don't take the HPME
as you can see, i've been thinking a lottttttt lol
also, Vandy08, i checked out ENGAGE--definitely incredible, but they only take like three people into the program---hence the reason its incredible lol |
