I am trying to decide between PNWU and DCOM. I did the Masters at DCOM and have built really strong relationships with the faculty- from fellowship offers, to grants for research I have had a strong year here. Attending medical school at DCOM would mean some of my classes like MGA, Histo, and Neuroanatomy would transfer over with the chance to be a TA. I'm also applying to be an RA (free housing).
But I also am from the Pacific Northwest and would like to practice in WA eventually so PNWU is really appealing. Their rotation sites are near my home, and I want to do residency in the Pacific Northwest too. Plus, at PNWU I would get to visit my family every weekend and not be so isolated like in DCOM.
I would appreciate opinions about which school would increase my chances for residency on the west coast, what the research facilities at PNWU are like, and overall where I would be able to build good relationships with faculty/get scholarship opportunities. I am trying to compare both programs and would like ANYONE's opinion about what they would do and why they would choose one school over the other. I am really really confused about what I want/what to do.
