i strongly feel id like A&M since its in the small town of college station yet it is a huge school which isn't much to my likely as there's about 54,000 people that attend. also with A&M being a D1 school the academic work to major there is much more expense than attending a Junior College. when it comes to applying to A&M my GPA meets the requirements but as for my SAT since I'm not a good test taker will most likely be low and unacceptable for me to qualify to get into school there. Id much rather maybe go to a junior college knock out the basics and then maybe transfer over a year or two keeping a high GPA.

A&M students aren't just joining a university, they're joining a lifelong family that understands the value of loyalty of being a lifelong Aggie. since its within the small city of College Station its almost like a family community you grow with as everyone that's mainly down there is attending A& M or once did its like a life you get to hold onto with calling yourself an Aggie.
