I'm deciding between these two. I live in the midwest
in terms of ranking, both are similar (case- 25, keck- 31). for tuition, both would come out to the same (no financial aid from either). I'm not sure if I want to live in california in the future, i wouldn't mind working there but i also wouldnt mind working in the midwest.
Any ideas? And if possible, could current students chime in?
Questions I have:
- Is one school more stressful than the other?
- I know LA is a big city, and Cleveland is smaller. But how is Cleveland in terms of the city? Would it be tough to have a social life and meet people or go to fun places in Cleveland?
I know LA is definitely bigger than Cleveland, but I'm worried Cleveland is on the level of Rochester, MN!
- If all else is the same, would a student coming from Case have a better/lower chance of matching into the same residency program than one coming from Keck?
-Are the match results of the 2 schools comparable? Is one better? (I saw that more than 90% of Keck students chose to stay back in California while Case was more spread out. Could I come back to the midwest if I went to Keck, or is going to Case better if I want to do residency in midwest?)
- If you attend Keck, are you more likely to match on the West Coast than the Midwest?
Thank you so much!! Any help would be appreciated!
Also, I heard lectures are not recorded in Case. Is this tough for current students, or should it be a deal breaker? I'm also worried about the written exams in Case. Keck has the more traditional curriculum.
I also want to do internal med in the future if that makes a difference
