I liked both programs, and both are ranked fairly highly (top 5).. but I'm having trouble on which to rank a higher.
Both ERs were alittle cramped and both have a fairly diverse population. I thought the residents and faculty at BIMC were extremely friendly but wasn't thrilled about their peds exposure (seems their peds ER has fairly low volume, although you get to spend a 2 months at jacobi).. they are also level II trauma, but you have a few months over at elmhurst (undecided if thats a + or - yet.. not to ding elmhurst, b/c i loved it when i went there for sinai's interview, just feel that i might feel more comfortable with fairly consistent exposure to management of traumas).
I liked NYHQ and feel they have great pathology and diversity, plus they are level I (with a month in NV).. if anything, a negative is probably their location in flushing. Not sure how their peds exposure is relative to BIMC.
Any thoughts/insights from people who have seen both places?
