A degree from West Point holds much bigger weight than Yale, Stanford, Harvard, etc... not only do you have to complete your academics in a school that rivals the best in the nation academically, but you also have to endure the military's physical standards as well, all the while accomplishing all of this to military standards.

To be honest, hospitals do not care the place you acquire your undergrad (on your case a biology/pre-med important likely). you need to have long gone to an Ivy League, which would be magnificent, yet somebody else using for that job have been given the coolest comparable degree at yet another, appropriate notch state college that grew to become right into a heck of plenty greater reasonably-priced than your 2 hundred,000 dollar undergrad degree. My advice, try annoying to get into an staggering college, yet do not rigidity your self out. once you notice for med college, it quite is once you opt to hunt for an exceedingly appropriate notch college. A Biology degree is a biology degree, and a pre-med software is a pre-med software; i hate to declare it however the classes may be the comparable, whether you spend 2 hundred grand at Harvard or 40 at some public college. this is great which you're motivated, yet while i grew to become into in eighth grade i grew to become into precisely such as you (my dream grew to become into M.I.T.) and now i choose i had in basic terms enjoyed those years particularly of taking each achieveable hazard to strengthen my utility. I spent a summer season in Argentina my Sophmore twelve months and did not even care how great it would look on my purposes, and it grew to become into the main suitable time of my existence.
