Hi Ousmane,
I attended UCE (University if Central England). It's a very good school. I got my JD from there. I have worked in Law for about 10 years. The school courses were difficult but it was definitely worth the effort and time to be stressed and overworked :>.

I loved IT and biology in high school. So when I saw that one of the universities had Bioinformatics education, it was easy to decide. Honestly, I found about them by accident, but immediately felt that this is the right direction.

Hi Ousmane,
I attended the University of Maryland, which was my in-state university. For me, the selection was mostly financially driven - I worked my way through college, so choosing an in-state institution was a no-brainer. Fortunately, UMD is a very good school with a wide variety of programs to study, so I still graduated with a great education and a wonderful college experience. Selecting a college is a very serious life choice and will drive many events in your life - not just career, but the friends you make and often your future spouse are met in college, so research your schools carefully and choose what feels right. Make sure the school has a variety of high quality programs that capture your interest, and don't land on a school JUST because it has the major you want now. Many students change their minds on their majors after experiencing college and the variety of programs, so having a wide variety is crucial. Lastly, given the overwhelming cost of student debt in our society, do not discount the financial implications, either. Many public schools' in-state tuition rates are quite affordable and you can still achieve a terrific educational experience at a fraction of the cost of private schools or attending out-of-state public institutions. Good luck!
