Better placement or better fit?

[natroncb]

I believe within a month or soon thereafter some of us will have a choice to make... go to the school we believe will place us into a speciality or go to the school we feel like we would enjoy the best (location, friends, etc).

I could go to school xxxx and have to die everyday to stay above water and probably have better speciality placement or I could go to school yyyy and have an easier time, enjoy myself better, but possibly have a more difficult time specializing.

I will probably choose the difficult school for my own reasons.

**and yes, I know... all schools are difficult. Some are more so than others.**

What schools are good for specializing? I've heard #'s from each school, but the statistics are all messed up because of the AEGD programs and I haven't found a comprehensive list. Any help would be appreciated.

that's the kind of thing you should ask very specifically in your interview!

but good luck finding such a list... i'd like to see it too.
