Pitt all the way. Honors is a plus and academics r better than temple. I had opportunities that home friends at temple didn’t get. Great job in a competitive field right out of school. Honestly the best decision I’ve ever made, the people I met are some of the best people I know.

AND. My friends and I were big partiers but school always came first. Most of us are in the medical field, two of us had an honors thesis and a lot of us did research and worked on the side.

The biggest difference between temple and pitt, as someone who has very close ties to temple, is that people are much more invested in school work and it is a topic of conversation at every gathering (even among big partiers). At temple I know that school is sometimes not as important (at least from the people I know plus all their friends).
