I am choosing between UVA and UMD for medical school. I really love both schools. I am in-state for UMD but attended at Virginia public school for UG. I love the atmosphere at UVA but concerned about how well their accelerated curriculum prepares students for Step 1. UMD's traditional curriculum seems like it would be a safer choice. I am interested in pediatrics with a specialization for residency. Does anyone have an opinion based on experience at either of these schools?
