[quote=Anonymous]My daughter recently graduated with a biomolecular engineering degree. She took many of the same required courses that her pre-med friends took. The courses are challenging, but she was still able to graduate with a 3.75 while also being a student athlete and still having time for research and fun with friends. One of her roommates was pre-med and finished with a 3.9+ and received a very high MCAT score (her workload was less than my daughters)

I disagree with the idea that students are studying seven hours a day. Maybe during finals. As for environment and traditions, there are always lots of things to do and the house system is unique. My daughter misses her time there and would love to be back. The academics were challenging, but she was surrounded by incredibly curious people who pushed each other to think more deeply and were also very collaborative. It is a special place. If your daughter is strong academically and organized, she will most likely love her time at UChicago.[/quote]
