Hey everybody 🙂 I have been fortunate enough to be accepted into a few schools and have narrowed my options to Kirksville and RVU. I am having a very difficult time deciding which school to go forward with. Any insight or suggestions would be much appreciated.

Kirksville:

Pros
  • Great Board Scores and Match rate
  • Cheap costs of living
  • No distractions
  • Friendly staff and admin
  • Ultrasound training
Cons
  • Not a fan of most of the rotation sites
  • Moving from large city to small town
RVU:

Pros
  • Amazing board scores and match rates
  • Denver - lots of outdoor activity and more similar to where I live now
  • USMLE 1 required
  • Surgical Simulation lab
  • Love all the rotation sites
Cons
  • High cost of living
  • Lots of distractions

I know either school would provide me with a solid foundation to improve upon in residency. I would be proud to attend either school. Tuition is nearly the same at both; it's just the cost of living that makes the difference. Let me know what y'all think!
