LECOM
PROS:
- 1 hour from home
- $32k tuition
- good match list
- will potentially get to room with study partner from masters program who is also accepted
CONS:
- vibes feel like a Dr factory (personal impression)
- staff don’t seem to care about students as much
- clinical rotations may not be in 1 place
- PBL might be miserable in the beginning (usually study off the slides not the book)
- no food or drink in facilities
CUSOM
PROS:
- beautiful facility, better vibes
- staff seems to really care about students
- Systems based curriculum (no pbl)
- location is great for outdoor activities (hiking, snowboarding)
- established clinical rotation sites
- super rural
- $47k tuition
- 9 hours from home
- Quizzes every week
