[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know that this forum is not a Florida forum, but it seems that a lot of kids in the DMV are heading to UF this fall. For those who had/have kids attend UF, how competitive was the environment? I read on here that the pre-med kids are extremely competitive with each other, but what about the other majors? [/quote] I have one kid in med-school and another one on the way, both big State U's. The competitive pre-med thing might be prominent at smaller colleges like SLACs where there are smaller pre-med cohorts competing for fewer Profs and class offerings but not so much at large State U's where you might have 500-600 that start a pre-med track (orgo usually culls the heard). Students are competing against themselves with different majors, classes and such. A lot don't even know each other. It's not like they are hacking into the system and changing grades or something. Your kid just needs to go and get the best GPA they can.[/quote]
