Hey everyone. I've received acceptances at these schools and would love advice/input from people at either of the two, or from anyone really! For Creighton, I really like their strong clinical aspect. I have never been to Omaha but I hear it is a cool city. I have an uncle who went there for his DDS and he loved it. I don't know anybody who lives there now, however. With Pacific, my brother in law will be a D3 when I am a D1, so I would get to live close to him and my sister for a year. San Francisco is expensive, and when I went for the interview back in October I wasn't thrilled about the idea of living in a big city like SF for three years.
One final note I will point out is that I am a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormon Church). I am 25 and single, so choosing a place that has a strong population of other members of my church so that I can potentially get married in either location is an important factor I am also considering.
If anyone has any additional comments or suggestions about the clinical experience, how well either school prepares you for getting into a residency, or anything else, I would love to hear it. Thanks in advance!

creighton also has no specialties, so you get to handle more complex cases while in school...
