colleges??

I'm very interested in science and medicine and I'm wondering what colleges in the north east have good programs for students planning to major in this field? Sorry that my question isn't super specific, but I'm not quite sure what I want to major in, I just know I want to do something in medicine. Or pharmacy. Or something else, I'm really not too sure...

2. You weren't very specific about what field you want to go in. For nursing, Columbia University School of Nursing is probably the best in the country. For science, MIT (of course). Boston College is certainly no slouch either. Ditto for Columbia (their med school is also top notch - I know a couple of graduates from there who are outstanding doctors in their respective fields). Of course, all the schools listed above are expensive (Columbia is Ivy League; Boston College is private and MIT speaks for itself). If you are looking for a great state school, try SUNY (State University of New York; different chapters all over the state and all good), Rutgers (my sister and her husband both went there - the science programs are fantastic). Boston University is also great. Ditto University of Mass. at Amherst. Good luck!!
