Hello,

I just came back from both admit student programs and cannot seem to make a great decision. My observation is that Northwestern seems a lot more pre-professional than U of C, which stresses research and intellectualism. Out of the two, I feel like I fit better at the U of C but I am concerned that my GPA will suffer there and be distracted by fulfilling the numerous CORE reqs. What are your opinions?

Here is some info about myself:
-I plan to be a biology major, but am open to explore
-Interested in conducting research as early as freshman year
-Many extracurricular interests outside of academics
