I am trying to decide between the school and I'm having a really hard time making a decision. Does anyone have any advice as to the pros and cons of each school please??
I like that penn has a slight better reputation than njms and I think that might be beneficial when applying to residency (right?), and also it's in a much nicer (safer) area which I prefer as to the craziness of Newark.
But... Students at njms seem to really like the school and I like that at njms you get great hands on experience and I feel like going to school in Newark I'll have more exposure to a variety of different case (although I hear that even tho penn state is in the middle of nowhere, they often get patients flown in the helipad).
I am a nj resident and tuition at njms will obviously be cheaper, but at the end of the day I want to go to the school in which I'll be happier. Can any students from either school weight in please? Any advice is welcomed!
