I would like some advice on what college path I should take with the ultimate goal of perhaps going on to med school and becoming a doctor. Also, should I major in pre-med? Because I heard that most med schools don't care what your major is, as long as you have the required courses.

Should I:
1.) Go to a decent state school where I may be offered a good scholarship.
2.) Go to a prestigious school (no scholarship) with a class of intelligent students.

Say someone goes to choice 1, and another person goes to choice 2. Both end up with the same MCAT score, but the first person has a 3.6 GPA because the school isn't as competitive as school 2, whereas person 2 has a 3.2.

In the end, will med school admissions staff choose the person who went to the affluent college with the lower gpa, or the person who went to the less affluent school with the higher gpa?
Thanks for your help!

My english summer reading project:
Oedipus The King by Sophocles

"Discuss the great polarites Oedipus experiences in his search for identiy: fame and shame, sight and blindness, ignorance and insight. Defend Oedipus' reliance on his intellect as both his greatest strength and his ultimate downfall. Support with textual evidence."

So far, I'm not entirely sure if I totally understand the topic. I think the fame has to do with Oedipus and how he became king after saving Thebes from the Sphinx; the shame comes from learning that he completed the prophecy. Oedipus has the ability to see, but at times he can be blind. He can't see what's right in front of him then he eventually blinds himself.

I have no idea how ignorance and insight relates to Oedipus, and how he uses his intellect as "his greatest strength and ultimate downfall."

Any ideas?
Help?
