The student is more important than the school. Especially regarding medical school.

All of the states in the SEC footprint have flagship schools that can give your motivated daughter a great start with a degree in biology. I think the most bang for the buck would be an in-state undergrad degree from one of Missouri’s public universities.

If she is near the top of her class after 4 years, she will be an attractive candidate wherever she applies for medical school. A school’s name may carry a bit of prestige but the student’s ability is far more important when it comes to earning money.

Right. And quite a few schools give nice discounts on people from a neighboring state as far as out of state tuition. Some even offer in state tuition.

Good grades at any decent school will probably get you into medical school. Good grades at medical school will get you into Memphis, Dallas, or any other big city you care to think about in the Southern footprint.

She could make a very nice salary in one of those places while still enjoying a low enough cost of living to take vacations anywhere she wants.
