Unless you have been guaranteed an RA position, please don’t assume you will get one…at ANY college. These are competitive positions, and NO ONE should just assume they will be hired for a position.
Your final colleges are three very expensive colleges. You had other less costly acceptances. Remember, medical school…should you get accepted…Will cost you likely $100,000 a year. It would be nice if you didn’t have to fund that totally from loans.
I won’t try to convince you that your costs are very high…so I’ll suggest you choose CMU. I’m not sure who you think doesn’t know about this school, but it is quite well known. In addition, it’s an excellent college. Even without that RA job…it’s your best price. I think it’s at least as good as the others, and especially if you consider affordability.
I’m not sure what you mean by “best premed”. Fact is…you can take the required courses for medical school applicants at just about any four year college in this country, arts conservatories excluded.
Here is your other recent thread with all of your acceptances. I’m not sure why Pitt or Temple aren’t in contention. But I guess they aren’t.
