<p>Stony Brook is a Science school, whereas Binghamton is a Liberal Arts school. Stony Brook has nobel prize winners, discoveries and inventions in the Science field, including and not limited to, the research behind the MRI, and other famous diseases. With the help of Brookhaven National Lab, our Medical School, our Hospital, and our specific focus on the Sciences(we are on a whole different tier when compared to Bing) You will receive a far better quality education, with faculty members who are experts in their field. About the competition? It will be rough. Stony Brook has just admitted their best class ever, with the highest incoming grades of all SUNY schools, so you will be a tad bit depressed, but the end result will be magnificent, especially when compared to a Liberal Arts school. Make sure you interact with faculty members, try to get involved in pre-med related clubs; and try to conduct research in:</p>
<p>A)Medical school[We have a medical school, whose faculty doesn’t mind training undergrads, a great plus for SBU, vs other Liberal Arts schools.</p>
<p>A)Our hospital.</p>
<p>If you were into Business, or other liberal arts(even though we are catching up, just today Stony Brook’s music program was ranked the 24th best in the Nation, better than any SUNY school), Bing would’ve been a better choice. Since you are a Science guy, it would be an insult to not go with SBU.</p>
