Stony Brook IS a major teaching hospital with a good medical school.

not saying you should go there but it def has what you need to be pre-med.

all these schools do. I agree with taking RPI off the list if engineering is not a strong interest. And I agree Stony Brook might be less of the real college experience.

If the cost is the same for all, my vote would go for Richmond or Rochester since they both have pretty good prestige and all-around strong programs if the pre-med thing changes or doesn’t work out, plus the support structures of a private school. But I wouldn’t pay a lot more for them than Pitt.

Between Pitt and VCU, I just think Pitt has a stronger rep and stronger average student.
