I think what it comes down to is where do you picture yourself being for four years? Both schools are great. From my personal experience, Meharry is a great school. The atmosphere is very nurturing. But I believe dental education is pretty similar in terms of coursework and clinic experience. Some schools expose students to clinic a bit earlier than others, but in the grand scheme of things, at either school you're going to get a quality education. Which one are you leaning towards? And why?
