PacNW likes people from the West Coast, and AZCOM like higher MCAT scores, so delete and add both LECOMs, Western-OR, all three VCOMs, UIW, ARCOM, NYITC-AR, LMU, KYCOM, BCOM, both RVUs

What are your thoughts on AZCOM vs CCOM? It seems like, just from your posts, that AZCOM has higher MCAT requirements than CCOM.

AZCOM wants a minimum of 29 on the old exam (~507 on the new exam).

Both schools are good. Except with one, winter makes a serious attempt to kill you, with the other, it's summer. But it's a dry heat!, you say? So's an oven!
