AZCOM vs NSU MD

[BMRMike]

AZCOM
Pros

• Amazing match, two plastics last year (what I want)
  
• Established

Cons

• DO
  
• Expensive

NSU MD
Pros

• MD
  
• Tuition 10k less
• Will have free apt (live with family)

Cons

• No match list or graduated class
  
• Really just a lot of ???

Summary: Considering I want to do plastics, is it better to go for brand new MD or very established (of the 2 ACGME DO plastics last year, both were from AZCOM) DO? Even if I don't end up doing that, I'm saving 15-20k a year at NSU and getting an MD.

More positives point towards the MD spot.

Go to NSU MD. MD > DO for anything competitive. Do away rotations, do research, network network, network. Also, MD is cheaper. Also, you will have family support at NSU and save hella money, lol
