Well I've been looking at a bunch of universities, and I want to goto a competitive university, but I'm not sure if I'll make it in. So I was wondering how good is Boston U?

Boston U is a pretty tough school to get into. I think it's the 3rd most applied to school in the country if I'm not mistaken. It's a good school, but it is VERY expensive and most kids who get accepted don't go because of their awful financial aid generosity.
However, I have heard that their pre-med program is insanely tough in order to weed out any kids who aren't serious.
Just fyi...
Boston U also has a 7 and 8 year BS/MD program.
Yeah, but you have to do a bunch of things to qualify. I was going to apply but when I realized that they had that program I had already missed the boat.
And I know pre-med isn't fun anywhere, but someone from the school told me that their pre-med program was unusually difficult in order to see who has the willpower to hack it.
Truthfully, I'm not sure how demanding their regular pre-med program is. But I knew a bunch of students that went through the 7 year combined BS/MD program, and they basically told me the first few years are cupcake. They partied a LOT.
