I currently have an acceptance to both and would like some opinons on both school.
Downstate:
Pros: Has cheaper tutition, Decent rep (mostly around NY), A good split between the amount of competitive residencies for the graduating class. I will be closer to home with my family and friends.
Cons: Decent rep, I didn't like that area of Brooklyn too much, Match list is alright.
Georgetown
pros: Better reputation that Downstate, Most people get into very competitve specialties (at good hospitals too), Can'g go wrong with going to school in DC.
Cons: A lot of money and a lot of Georgetown hating on SDN.
Is If money was not a huge factor...would Georgetown be a good choice?
P.S. Please try not to make this into a school bashing thread. I just want some objective opinions.
