The only reason to go to a college like Notre Dame is to say you went there. You can get a similar education at many cheaper public universities. Hell, if you really want to go to a prestigious college the best thing to do is do really good in your first three or four semesters of college. GO to a good public school and transfer.
Good colleges have high med school acceptance percentages. I want this.
Secondly, I want to skip the step of transphering and go directly there. If I work hard during HS, then that makes me go directly where I want. Plus, I don't have to work that hard.
You are stupid.
After you get in they don't care about what courses you took or what grades you got. It's either "What's your major" or "What kind field do you want to specialize in".
What are we talking about? I want to go to a good med school. First comes pre-med. After this you must apply and get accepted to med school. (This is at a difference school) The better the school, the higher rate of going to med school.
Just recently I wiped everything involving high school off my resume. Employers don't care anymore now that I've finished a semester of college.
I agree. Its just they do care about college. and colleges care about high school stuff. ACT, SAT, Grades, extracurricular, exc.
