I know I hate these posts because they are so general but I will try to narrow it down a bit. I am trying to narrow my choice down to NECO or PCO.
PCO
-I like the fact that PCO students see so many patients in their clinical years. I was quoted around 3,000 patients as to 1,000 - 1,500 at NECO.
-I would have a car in Philly so getting to the clinic would not be a problem.
-City is not as attractive as Boston.
NECO
-As said in someone else's post NECO reviews some material in the first year that most other schools will assume you know.
-Different clincs throughout Boston will expose students to more diverse patients.
-I like the city itself better. Comes off as more attractive for living and cleaner.
My question is this, I would say that I do not have the strongest science background but have taken all the pre-req sciences. Is the course load at PCO much more intense than NECO?
