Geisel

Pros
-They value non-trads and I am non-trad
-Good match list
-Service oriented, which I value

Cons
-Expensive
-Very cold (I am from a warm place and cold can be hard for me)
-Small and rural location (I was hoping for a slightly bigger city)

Wright State

Pros
-NBME exams
-In Dayton, an area I really like

Cons
-Not as prestigious as my other options
-Seems very primary care focused (I am interested in pathology)

Cincinnati

Pros
-They have a decently large pathology department
-Cheapest option

Cons

-Not a huge fan of Cincinnati
-Monday exams (biweekly)
-Class rankings. I really want a more collaborative learning environment.

WMed

Pros

-Great pathology department (medical examiner works out of the campus and they have a lot of pathology connections at the school)
-Decompressed schedule with exams on Fridays and a week off after each block
-I like Kalamazoo as a city

Cons
-VERY expensive (not sure if the cost difference would be worth it)


Thank you for any input in advance!
