Also one more thing about medical school. It makes almost no difference where you go to medical school if you want to go into private practice. Unless you want to go into academic medicine or research, your state medical school is in all likelihood an excellent option. I have close family members who have taken both tracks - strong state medical school (top 30) vs highly ranked private school (top 20). Both are very successful surgeons, with an edge to the state medical school grad due to location. One will be paying off 200k of student loans for 30 years, the other paid them off 6 months after graduation.
