<p>Thanks for your responses!</p>
<p>Reading your responses, it seems like I have 2 choices:</p>
<ol>
<li> Move residency to Texas before sophomore year and apply to a Texas medical school as a in-state (Texas) student</li>
<li> Apply to a California medical school after I graduate from Rice.</li>
</ol>
<p>As a matter of fact, I did not think seriously about where to go to medical school and did not decide whether to stay in California or move to Texas yet and chances are half and half.
Is attending Rice still a good decision even I pick choice 2 and come back to California?
I was also admitted to UC Berkeley, UCLA and USC.
I really appreciate any comments.</p>
