On a related note: If you do decide to be under your parents' insurance, make sure to contact them regularly about it. I got sick of having a subpar plan that kept changing every few months because they kept switching plans (I didn't have any control over what I had basically) so I ended up getting my own health insurance and there's a much better peace of mind there -- it stays the same plan and is better, just the difference is part of my paycheck goes towards it. Preferably you'd be able to get an insurance plan from an employer.

Being on a parental insurance plan is overrated, honestly. It may save some money but there is a lot of hassle that isn't worth it, unless you're really tight on budget.
