Hi all,
What are your thoughts on TCOM (UNTHSC) vs KCU (Kansas City location)?
I live in Texas currently, and in combination with the tuition difference, TCOM seems like the better option. But what are your thoughts when considering the following items:
1. 3rd year clerkship sites (KCU allows you to build your own 3rd year rotations (following the guidelines) at which ever hospital, if you’d like to. I have really good connections to a specific hospital that I could utilize for this but obviously isn’t a guarantee).
2. Residency placement specialities
3. Student life (KCU has really emphasized being student-centric).
4. Curriculum intensity (don’t know if this is different at either school).
I know from my above points it seems that KCU makes the best sense - but that’s also partly because I haven’t really given TCOM a good look. Please let me know your thoughts. Thank you!!
