Kind of like I said, it just felt natural to me when I was came for my interview. Of all the schools I went to, I felt the most at home at Tech. I could tell that I fit in well with the people here, and knew that I would perform at my best somewhere that I was comfortable.
Really, the only downside here is location, but it's honestly not that bad, especially from DFW. Plus you're not going to have the opportunity to go home all the time, anyway. There are many more positives than negatives, that's for sure. One big benefit that you definitely won't get at UTMB, and I'm not sure about A&M, is the connection with the undergrad campus. Free admission to all home sporting events and access to the super awesome rec center, with an epic pool area for the summer months! Also the HSC student center is a really cool place to hang out, and you get to meet people from all the other programs in the HSC.
With regard to the 3 schools in question, my ranking was
Tech
A&M
UTMB
UTMB was actually my number one out of all schools before I started interviews, but I knew as soon as I got there that it wasn't for me. They tried to emphasize being chill so much that it seemed fake, and all the construction there was a big turn-off, as well.
I interviewed at the Temple A&M campus and liked it well enough, but not as much as Tech. I can't comment on the College Station campus, so I don't know how the facilities differ between those two campuses, but one thing I remember for sure was that the sim center was really lacking compared to the one at Tech.
