Hey everyone, I've been on SDN for more than 8 years.... hard to believe, I know... but I figured I'd finally ask a question. Anyhow, I'm putting in my ROL and could really use your input. I didn't put this in the main thread because the title here shows you what schools will be compared. I'll give you my thoughts on each, and if you could comment, that's be great... and give a final ROL?
Case Western: really great PD. great people to work with. concerned about the subspecialty chair I met. Cleveland is... ok
CCF: again.... Cleveland... but it's CCF. I figured for the name, I could dig my heels in. I didn't get the feeling that it was "subspecialty" run. I met with many residents and rounded with them....but no night float. I also met the subspecialty program director... very nice guy.
RWJ: Really nice program. People were nice. Not far from nyc. PD seemed very very stern. Wasn't a fan of the mandatory morning board review. I like to study on my own.
NW: I loved Chicago. Great program, great people.
Jeff: great people, program is ok. the PD is awesome. I felt a bit overshadowed by Penn. The other applicants were talking about it compared to there. I didn't even apply there.
Drexel: huge program. One of the residents told me she wouldn't come back there...
That being said. My idea of my rank list is the following.
1. NW👍👍👍
2. CCF👍👍
3. Jeff👍👍
4. RWJ🙂
5. Case🙂
6. Drexel🙁
If anyone could give me input, I'd greatly appreciate it. Thanks so much!!!!
