Hey guys, help me decide where I should go to. Hear my reasoning out before giving me advice. The pros and cons are specific to me and not just pros and cons overall...
GA-PCOM
Pros: near my home, good reputation, liked the school fairly well
Cons: NO DEDICATED STUDY TIME, rotations kinda suck, way too much emphasis on OMM (not saying I don't want OMM, just don't want too much)
LUCOM
Pros: loved the school, the atmosphere, and the current students - As I am very religious, I fit right in with the community, 6-week dedicated study time, the first-time match went pretty well with only 4 out of 126 students NOT matching.
Cons: 7 hrs away from home, first class graduates this year so not much history, rotations are not too great
As someone who is hoping to go into anesthesiology in the future, I will definitely be taking the USMLE. With GA-PCOM giving barely any dedicated study time, I'm worried I won't be able to score as well. I'm someone who really needs time to study and do well on big exams Current GA-PCOM students were discussing recently how hard it is for them to really study for COMPLEX and USMLE with barely any dedicated study time.
Please help me decide which to pick. Only serious input please
