i probably could have made it through engineering school at Pitt

Well, who couldn't? LOL

Don't most med/dent-types take biology or something more useful?

my brother squeaked through with a C avg in Chem E/Petroleum E from Pitt and worked for Halliburton for 25 years, and only left to go with one of their competitors who would not move him all around the country. I don't think a private university would have gotten him a better job, and would have cost a whole lot more.

Med/Dent types can do a science major but then if they don't get into the professional school what good is a Chem or Bio degree? it's not worth squat. like i said, she will do engineering and if she likes it, that can be her career, if she isn't jazzed about it, she can apply to professional school. She is a brainiac, i know she will do well at either.
