You have to pick the school that you feel the most comfortable with. However, I would strongly suggest not to room with your best friend in college. Living with someone is a LOT different than being friends with someone. My two roommates sophomore year moved in as best friends and left as bitter enemies (not exaggerating either). Besides, living with random people freshman year is the best way to make new friends.

Also, a 26 MCAT is FAR BELOW what is competitive for medical school. A 3.6 is also below what you want as a competitive applicant. If that’s all you need for VCU’s med program, then consider yourself lucky.

Visit the schools and pick the one you liked the best. You can get into medical school from either.
