For all you Med School Graduates out there...
I am interested in doing emergecy medicine or possibly truama surgery. If these were your ambitions, and you had the option of either getting a free ride to your 2nd tier state school (not CA), or going to a better, though not top-10 school, such as NYU, U. Pitt, or Einstein, what would you have done? If you got into a top-ten school, such as Johns Hopkins, Cornell, or Yale, what would you have done?
Most importantly, in retrospect, do you think that where you went to med school really made a difference in obtaining a good residency? Did going to a state school hinder you, or did going to a top ranked school help you enormously?
Please post your responses!!
Thanks a bunch!!
