So I'm wondering (again-lol) how SDN feels about taking on an additional 6 figures of debt for a more prestigious school. I realize that other factors come into play when picking a med school, but prestige seems to be the most prevalent justification for a higher COA.
While the poll is anonymous, I'd like to hear why you picked a specific answer i.e. I'm aiming for a top IM program so I'd pay more for a top 10, Stanford is worth an extra 100k due to opportunities outside of medicine etc. Additionally, it'd be awesome to hear from med students and physicians who dealt with this sort of School X vs. School Y dilemma.
Oh, and Mayo counts as a top 10 school.
