<p>Hey everyone, I’m a junior from San Diego who’s striving to get into several top-tier universities, such as Stanford, Johns Hopkins, the Ivy Leagues, etc. My question is this:</p>
<p>Is it better do an internship in San Diego with either the Burnham Institute, the Salk Institute, or Scripps, while doing other activities pertaining to music, or <em>attempt</em> to go out of state to take part in a NIH internship or a program such as RSI, which I would think is an unlikely endeavor.</p>
<p>And if the two latter ideas fail, what insitute, out of the 3, is the best to do an internship at in your opinion?</p>
<p>I appreciate any advice :)</p>
