Hi, so far I've been accepted to EVMS, my 2nd choice of schools--I think... EVMS staff and the dean are really wonderful people. I found out over the phone that I was pulled off their waitlist. The place is beautiful, and the students are great.
However, tomorrow I'll find out where I stand at MCW, my 1st choice--I think... To be honest, when I was at MCW, I did get that feeling that it felt like home. I've been thinking about the pros and cons with reputation and location, but I still would like some advice.
Would MCW offer me better chances at securing a residency, perhaps in CA? I would like the option of coming back... would the snow be too hard to deal with?
EVMS seems to be really great at clinical training, but I am a little worried about being competitive when I finish, unless I'm at the top of my class... Any thoughts? Your response would be greatly appreciated...
Thanks so much
P.S. I checked out the AMSA school ranking thing, and EVMS holds its own vs. MCW, and in fact, has been rated slightly higher, but only 5 people from EVMS participated in the survey, while 16 MCW people participated, which I suppose are almost equal percentages of their class...
