Well TouroCOM-NY definitely has some advantages if you want to see some more exotic diseases and have some easier shoe ins to rotate in various places electively. So let me try to point it out honestly ('selling' seems disingenuous, you need honest assessments).
Our 3rd year is a 10 month rotation with 2 open months (more on this later) to do early electives if you're so inclined. Its IMx2, Surgeryx2, Outpatient Family Medx2, Pediatrics, OBGYN, Psych, and Emergency Med. LECOM may do EM, but most schools don't, so its a potential advantage since EM is one of the field with a lot of DO presence in the ACGME world.
Our school send 35-40% of their students to Queens (St. John's Episcopal) and Staten Island (SI Univ Hospital). St. John's is a mid-size hospital and one of those places DOs love to rotate at (AOA residencies in FM, IM, Derm, Surgery and Ophthalmology and some ACGME residencies). Staten Island is a level I trauma center, so it sees every crazy disease out there because of it. It also has fellowships in oncology and cardiology. In both of these hospitals you spend 9 of your 10 months at the hospital (so youre mostly in the same place all year, which is nice).
About 50% of our students rotate at any number of our 6 hospitals in North Jersey. The Jersey track, right now, is pretty much a traveling rotation among a bunch of hospitals over there taking advantage of the strengths of each hospital. For note the hospitals are Holy Name, Palisades, Englewood, Christ Hospital in Jersey City, Trinitas, and Summit Medical Center. Palisades and Summit don't have residency, the rest all do (with the new batch of ones at Holy Name and Englewood being our schools first campus-specific OPTI, so some of our adjunct faculty staff the residency). Most people at these rotations end up with 2 or 3 hospitals. I've seen people have 4, and I've seen all at the same one hospital... but most people want to go here because, except for summit, they're all right on the hudson river and the students like the idea of hitting 2 or 3 different hospitals without having to move for any of them.
We also have 5-10% that go to Rockland County for Nyack Hospital or go WAY upstate to Binghamton or Utica. It should be noted that Nyack is part of our "core" spots (and is 30 minutes outside of the city, so its not a big deal), but IDK where they're going to put its spots next year... it's mixed in with Jersey this year. The Utica and Binghamton spots are *extras*. I just want to make that clear. 5 people went up there last year, 4 are going up there this year. But zero could go up and there would be no problem. People elect to go there, as they're all extra spots (they are notorious for handing out residencies to their rotating students, and that safety appeals to people).
Now onto what I think is the big intangible. We have students rotating in NYU and Columbia and Einstein (and NYCOM, mwuahaha) hospitals in their 3rd year. Obviously even more so in the 4th year when you're supposed to be doing all these electives; but thats where our 3rd year months off are in our favor: the local NYC schools (as far as I've heard) dont have 3rd year open months for electives, but their hospitals allow them to visiting students, which has worked out well for us. We have a surprisingly good relation with all of the NYC hospitals (dont know anything about Sinai and us though) and we've been able to rotate at their hospitals without too much trouble from the moment we're done with our cores. So a lot of people really love that 1) these NYC hospitals are letting us rotate in our months off decently reliably and 2) we can rotate at these hospitals locally, so doing a month at Bellevue probably wont require moving for a month since your cores are all in 30 minutes driving distance of it anyway
