So,
I interviewed at a couple of newer MD programs in the past and was skeptical of an unproven track record.
What's stopping medical schools from each agreeing to take on additional 5-20 students each? Surely at schools with low enrollment like Mayo Clinic or Cleveland Clinic, that wouldn't compromise the quality of education.
And at bigger schools, what's an extra 5 students? It seems a lot cheaper than opening up a bunch of new schools. Not to mention, I would value an established name (forget school rank) over an unestablished name.
