I was accepted to Syracuse, Binghamton, NYU, Fordham, Buffalo, Colgate, Albany, Penn St., Tufts, and Boston College.

I don't know where I would have ended up had I gone to another school, but I chose Binghamton University for it's preceeding repuation and great value. With the position that I'm in right now, I wouldn't change it even if I received acceptance letters from Harvard or Oxford.

Question
I honestly didn't want to go to BinghamtonQuite BrightPreMed and Medical
I honestly didn't want to go to Binghamton University. I wanted to go to an Ivy or NYU, but somehow ended up at a state school. But I absolutely love it here. I changed my mind about being here within a day of stepping on campus.People that don't like Binghamton's social scene are people that sit in their dorm rooms and except people and activities to come to them. It doesn't work that way in any school. Yes, you have to get out there and make friends and make things happen for yourself, but that's kind of like the real world. You don't have to be a detective to find a lot of fun. Just get out of your dorm room. If you're not willing to put yourself out there, then Binghamton may not be the place for you.

Question
The engineering program that I am in isNot so bright
The engineering program that I am in is good. other than that, the entire city of binghamton is one huge shit hole. everyone around town is either fat, ugly, on welfair, handicapped or a combination of all four as far as the townies go. oh and did i mention that they do not shower. you will not see a half-decent car in binghamton either; everyone is flat broke, including the town of binghamton itself. its actually depressing as hell to live in binghamton the only thing i have to do is attend class and smoke mad trees ... the weed is good.
