So Im looking at colleges and i really cant decide between these 3. I want to major in engineering, but maybe go to medical school. I sort of know which schools have the best programs for engineering, and really want to know more about the night life, party scene, social scene of each, i wont know anyone at any of these places, so were would it be easy to meet know people? and this is a little shallow, but where are the best girls? One thing i wasn't stocked or about MSU was the guy to girl ratio. And if skiing didn't exist, which of these schools would i have the most fun at? (cant let skiing play to big a role in my decision) Please help me NSG, I don't want to waste 4 years and thousands of dollars at somewhere i hate.

Spark Notes: out of U of U, UBC, MSU which do you think is best?

Engineering students at UBC hung a Volkswagon Beetle off a bridge. And the campus is sick. I'd say UBC, that's where I'm headed.

They did it as a prank to prove that engineering students are the best.

depends on what youre going into.. but yes most of the med programs are AT LEAST in the top 25, and the hospital at the U is one of the best in the nation at getting students involved. The U is also second in the country behind MIT for research into patents which is a HUGE help.. if youre goin pre-med then i would look into biomed engineering as it has the highest acceptance rate into med school out of any undergrad and is actually pretty interesting and has good professors and research at the U
