I have the ability to get into a top university such as Johns Hopkins or Georgetown University. However, I don't want to spend the next four years of my life basically repeating high school -- pulling all nighters 3 times a week and only studying. I want to have a social life in college.
My parents say that I should go to a top-tier school, meaning schools in the top 100, but not go to an Ivy League-ish school. They say that I should study hard, make excellent grades, and then apply to a top 20 grad school. They say that undergrad doesn't really matter, all that really counts it grad school.

What do you think?

I'm in radiography school right now but I'm wondering about getting a B.S degree because I keep hearing that there is no pay difference. I don't want to waste my time getting a B.S if I could make more money getting a certificate in a specialization instead. I appreciate any input and information!! Thanks

If I have a BA in Liberal Studies (concentration :Social Science), then what would I need to take in graduate school in order to be able to teach middle and/or high school?

I would prefer to teach older kids, but I know that Liberal Studies basically preps you to just teach elementary kids (along with the teaching cert of course).
