Yeah, you know I used to be in that boat as well. Then I saw the first RVUCOM match list. I remember all of the comments about how essentially it was the worst school ever and would bring about the end of the world. Yea, they were sure right weren't they...:

Yes, WCUCOM's first class really will be fine when it comes to residency. For the last 4 years all we heard was how terrible RVUCOM would do at match. SO much for that argument.

Drink the kool-aid much? It affects ppl sure. EVENTUALLY. But you have to remember, this will affect IMG's and FMG's wayyyyyyy sooner than it will DO's, and WE HAVE OUR OWN RESIDENCIES. Ppl forget that fact or seem to ignore it, thinking they will only be happy if they do ACGME Optho. Well, let me tell you, Pretty sure you could be content with Osteo optho as well. Last time I checked, they both allow you to get a job as an ophthalmologist and the money is taken by the bank the same way.

I will be applying to this school for sure next June 1st. Sorry for the long post, sometimes when I see ignorance I just have a hard time letting it go. If you don't know any better, it's probably not so good to let that idea of yours out of your head.
