I couldn't find any current threads on this topic, but I'd like input from you guys on this. I've been fortunate enough to be accepted to both for this fall.
Factors for me to consider:
-I grew up in Downers Grove and my family still lives in Illinois.
-Des Moines is not too far, but still 6-7 hours away.
My impressions:
-I really liked DMU's facilities, including the simulation lab and surgical skills lab.
-CCOM didn't really wow me with anything.
-CCOM's match list and rotation sites seem to be better than DMU's. I'd like to get an MD residency and I think CCOM has a higher rate of that.
Tuition at CCOM is more than DMU.
What else should I be considering?
