Unfortunately mom2collegekids hit the nail on the head… they think that 'Bama is too homogeneous for me. And trust me, there’s no reasoning with them. I really like UT though and I feel like I have a pretty good chance since I looked on their website and saw a 43% acceptance rate for OOS and that I’m pretty far above the average SAT score. As for med school… trust me, I’ve tried to get my parents to consider schools with good merit for undergrad so that I can think about their future as well. They have assured me (read: told me straight up) that they’ll be able to pay for that too. I’m incredibly thankful that they’ve been saving up over the years. And I’m hoping that the full-pay will give me a slight boost in UT. Maybe being from Wisconsin will help too since I’m sure they don’t get a whole lot of applicants from here.
