Currently have interviews at:

KYCOM
WCUCOM
ARCOM
LMU-DCOM
ICOM
TUNCOM
LECOM-Erie

Accepted at ACOM and need help deciding which to attend out of the above. I’m from the northeast and would attend additional interviews at NYITCOM, PCOM, Rowan and any MD programs if given the opportunity.

Thanks.

Dump the WCU one at least.

I cannot recommend William Carey University.

My rank order from highest to lowest of your list would be
TUNCOM
LECOM
LMU
KYCOM
ARCOM = ICOM

Thank you Goro. Where would ACOM fall on this list?

How come you have LECOM ranked so highly? I've always heard negative stuff about them, particularly when it comes to clinical.

+'s
decent matches
cheap tuition


-'s
mandatory dress and lecture attendance codes.

Keep in mind that OP doesn't have much maneuvering room in his/her choices.

This also why DO schools cant be ranked because personally it'd be

LECOM PA not FL
TUNCOM
KYCOM = (ACOM)
LMU
ARCOM


Go to the LECOM interview due to cheap tuition because it'll make a difference especially since the chances are you will end up in primary care. Besides that, ACOM has steadily increased their tuition by 2k every year for the past 4 years, so its no longer one of the cheapest options.

LECOM Erie also has its own hospital with its own rotation sites.

That is something you don't understand the value of until you live in a car for 6 months working the phones trying desperately to get rotation sites as your program hemorrhages them due to moneyed Carib schools pushing your school out of the local hospitals...
