<p>Of going on to graduate, medical, or law school. I started out in a CC to save money, and after my first 2 years I transferred to a public university to get my B.S. in MechE .What are my options after obtaining my B.S. in mechanical if I do well? Will starting out in a CC hurt m chances of continuing my education? What is the different between the three, and which one do you think is best for engineering students?</p>
<p>Major : MechE
Minor: BiomedicalE</p>
<p>
No!
What do you mean?</p>
<p>Most grad schools focus most heavily on the 2nd half of your undergrad program. They care more about your upper division major coursework, them GEs. Going to a CC won’t hurt you.</p>
<p>I’m kind of lost so sorry if I wasn’t very specific. I am just trying to understand what my options are, and what would be best for me. </p>

“Three options:” Grad, med, or law school</p>

For law school, you definitely are not handicapped. Law schools around the nation do not expect their students to know anything about law, and some even view pre-law programs with skepticism.
Not sure about grad school, but the CC likely won’t hurt you.
Med school may be the hardest of all due to extracurriculars and research (unless you also did these at the CC). You’ll also need to prep extensively for the MCAT.</p>
<p>CC doesn’t hurt. In some cases, its better prepares you. </p>
<p>The best route depends on where you want to go. Go to med school if you want to be a physician, go to law school if you want to be a lawyer, grad school to continue your engineering studies. If you want to work with doctors and built artificial limbs, you can stay in engineering and not become a physician.</p>
