Firstly, note that all posts you get on this board may be tainted with the general GT perspective of “Boo Dawgs” because of our football rivalry. I don’t know if that is part of the reason (we always joke about UGA students all majoring in agriculture), but my opinion of UGA academically speaking is similar to my opinion of GSU. However, I am not familiar with their science research departments or premedical opportunities, so that is something for you to look into and decide for yourself.

Either way, my main advice is that you should “begin doing all of these things now to prepare for med school at GSU” no matter what you decide about transferring. Get involved, do research, participate in volunteering and student orgs, etc. This cannot hurt you. Yes, if you transfer there would be some discontinuity, but you would still have four years of good experience and activities, just some at different schools.
