Going to a not so prestigous school for pre-med?

I would just like to know is there a lot of time for ECs at Cornell? I mean the workload is of course extremely demanding, but do people how do pre-med have time for themselves or do people barely get enough sleep? Also, do professors care about their students, like are they accessible if you need help? See another aspect of the guaranteed transfer that is Cornell will only accept me if I pull off a 3.5 GPA and take basic pre-med reqs, with one of the requirements being molecular biology as my bio class. I mean that class will be extremely hard and I need to pull off a B in it. I am just scared that I wont do as well in it as Cornell expects. This is where all of my hesitation comes in. But even if I do stay at Stony Brook, I will still be considered for the good medical schools just like everyone else or do students in name schools get more preference?
