Hey guys,
I thought I had my rankings set...but I'm having second thoughts. Any thoughts/opinions/advice?
UTMB - loved the curriculum & clinical contact, but seriously concerned about safety on the island & program reputation for residency?
UTSW - solid reputation, but is the competition level too stressful & what about minimal clinical contact until 3rd year? Also, are 3rd and 4th year students in a friendly teaching/learning environment in the clinic?
TX A&M - very friendly and encouring, but very concerned about their program strength/reputation. Despite split campus, Scott & White is very appealing...3rd & 4th years agreed environment is GREAT for learning - low stress.
Some say it doesn't matter where you go for medical school as long as you are comfortable in that location. I'm not convinced of this after chatting with residents. Any and all info is welcome...rankings are due soon. THANKS!
