When comparing/choosing schools, how much weight should be given to the school's alumni networking potential?

That's a great question, so I'll punt it to our savvier SDNers. I just wanted to say that I love the screen name!!!

Thanks. I did a search in the forums and saw some dicussions in the PT and Optometry forums but nothing in the Allopathic.

Contacts made by active faculty are more important than alums for the match.

So for residency it's more about faculty recommendations. How about beyond that?

Beyond that, connections built by your residency faculty are most important.
