I’m an incoming first year and have to decide between renting an apartment near campus (1 hour round trip) vs. living at home (3 hour round trip by public transit). I have mandatory in-person lectures everyday with social distancing (some are half-days, some are full 8-5).
Renting an apartment: pro is closer distance to school; cons are rent and roommates
Living at home: pros are rent-free, quiet, parents are very understanding of med school demands; con is long commute by public transit
Note: Need to decide strictly between these 2 options within the week due to time constraints. Have no problem with studying on public transit.
