<p>Thanks for all the answers! I think I like the feel of Rice’s residential colleges and social scene better, but now that I’m looking closer at their biology program, I’m worried that it doesn’t have enough choices… They only seem to have biochemistry/cell biology or ecology and evolutionary biology. </p>
<p>Is anyone here at Rice interested in studying the life sciences or pre-vet felt restricted by these limited choices?</p>
<p>Also, how horribly hot is it in August? Is it torture just to go outside?? I’m very worried about the humidity!</p>
<p>Overall, the broad opportunities that Cornell provides in the life sciences is the one thing that keeps drawing me away from Rice.</p>
