You should go to the one that has the best program for the career you want. If you want to be a neurosurgeon then find the university that has the best program for neuroscience/surgery. Also, since you're premed, you should consider choosing one that has high rates of getting accepted into med school. Remember that the most prestigious university is not always the best one for your career.

Off topic but congratulations on getting accepted into these amazing prestigious univerisities, I aspire to be like you (I'm a junior).

Good luck! :)

These are all amazing schools!! Definitely Harvard has an amazing neuroscience program and would look so great on a future resume, as well as Brown. Those both have wonderful neuroscience programs and would definitely help you get where you want to be.

Oh wow! Great job! Obviously, you got into some of the best schools in the country and will be a great neurosurgeon! I know that MIT is a really good science school but I have a feeling that they are all great. I'm a sophomore and honestly haven't looked at those colleges (I have some others I'm eyeing). However, I can honestly say to go visit the colleges if possible and decide based from there which one matches your vibe the best. I also assume that you wouldn't apply to a college that doesn't have a good program for your intended major and career since you seem quite on top of the ball!
