Welcome to the forums.

Until something else happens, go to the school that accepted you.

agreed.

but just to humor you:
kansascom: just withdraw now. makes no sense if you already have an A. they've been a disaster so far.
ocom: also new, so personally would choose msom over them due to meritus health partnership and florida being crowded af with med schools and rotation sites
bcom: most established on this list, but also for profit and most expensive.

im sticking with msom. seems to be a solid foundation for a new school, but you will be first class so be prepared for that.

I've already lost track of these new schools. Is Meritus the one in Buffalo? Where's that the Memphis school?

And what's going on with Kansas COM?????

From what I read, the comments are on par for a brand new DO school.

From what I can tease out between the lines, and I've certainly seen this before even at my school, is that the clinical faculty maybe teaching to the level of residence and not to what a third year medical student needs to know.

The high attrition rate is definitely not a surprise. Brand new schools will admit people who are not capable of handling medical school, and I doubt that they have the infrastructure to help said students.
