Hi all! Thank you for any insight you might provide.
A bit about me: deleted for privacy, sorry.
Arizona-Tucson:
Pros:
--Really good vibes on interview day from faculty and students
--Smaller class size
--18 month preclerkship phase curriculum
--Proximity to family
--Low cost of living
Cons:
--Less prestige/rank in both research and primary care
--Tucson isn't an ideal location
--Lower average STEP scores
Albert Einstein:
Pros:
--Location: proximity to NYC, urban underserved patient population
--More research opportunities
--Greater prestige/ranking
--Cheap subsidized on-campus housing
--Higher average STEP scores
Cons:
--Traditional 2+2 curriculum
--Interview day structure not the best, unsure how this reflects on admin as a whole
--Great at matching students in NY/on the east coast, less so elsewhere
Both:
--Similar COA
--Electives and global health opportunities I'm interested in
