[quote=Anonymous]I went to BU (albeit in the late 1990s). It's a much more international school, in an urban (but not urban blight) environment. If your DD would feel like she'd get lost in the crowd, then maybe it's not a place for her (though I don't know how small Yale is). My roommate was premed and it was definitely tough/time-consuming, and they weeded out a lot of kids (she survived but then never went on to medical school because she changed her mind). There are plenty of opportunities for internships/paid jobs in the field, with all the hospitals and medical centers and research labs. If your kid is good enough to be accepted to Yale, she can maybe get a job at MIT (just across the river), etc. In short, outstanding people find opportunities outside their immediate environment as long as she has the confidence to look around.[/quote]
