Which one should I go to? I've been accepted to both. Which school is considered better? Better residency placement? Better rotations?

thanks!
 
boboo--
My advice to you would be to assess the pros and cons of each school. More importantly, you should really look at which school you feel you "fit in". By that I mean, which school do you really feel like you click with and which one is more appealing to you. I interviewed at both; was waitlisted at DMU and accepted at UHS. To be honest, I liked DMU a tad bit more, but I am so happy to go to UHS. Plus my wife is a little more supportive of moving to Kansas City over Des Moines.

Hope this helped!!
