Hey everyone,
Can someone outline the differences between COMP, LECOM and Touro New York in terms of curriculum, rotation opportunities, attrition rates, support for students, diversity of classes, ability to do international electives, research opportunities, etc?
Are any of the school pass/fail or known to be much more difficult academically for students? From a "prestige" perspective when looking at the opinions of program directors, on a whole are all three schools comparable or is there an advantage of one over the others? What are the percentage of applicants that apply to each of these schools who are successful? Does anyone know if LECOM accepts international students (or have in the past and if so how many)? I have heard that LECOM doesn't pay rotational sites or something to that effect, does this put their students at a disadvantage in any way with preceptors?

Thank you

This lonk has most of the answers for school comparisons. Regarding the LECOM specifics...look through the school specific threads for lecom, they'll answer your most of ur queries
 
Try these two

1. Inser school name into google.com
and then read the crap that comes up

2. Search SDN and find information


If all else fails take a road trip to (insert school name) and see first hand
