Hi, I've recently committed to a 7 year program with NJMS and turned down better and cheaper undergraduate institutions to do so. I've been getting cold feet and wanted to know if NJMS is considered a "good" medical school? I'm afraid the lack of prestige will prevent me from careers in the NIH, CDC, WHO, etc. Would it be better to stick with it or should I just commit somewhere else? I'm nervous about the amount of effort it'll take to apply to medical school, but it would be better to apply from one of the other schools than from the 7 year program I'm currently enrolled in.
This is the residency match list for the 7 year program class of 2015. They seem to be better than that of NJMS as a whole, so I'm getting the feeling that these students could have perhaps gone to better schools? (Assuming it wasn't because they wanted to save money):
EM, Jefferson
Anaesthesiology, Yale
PM & R, Kessler Institute
Pediatric Medicine, NJMS
Otolaryngology (ENT), Einstein
Ophthalmology, Einstein
Internal Medicine, U. Texas
General Surgery, Beth Israel NYC
Internal Medicine, Jefferson
Pediatrics, Einstein-Montefiore
Radiology, Northwestern
Radiology, U.Texas- Southwestern
Neurosurgery, Barrow Institute
Internal Medicine, U. Mass
Pediatric Radiology, Boston U/Brown U
Anaesthesiology, Einstein
