I think this thread may have been done before...I'm too lazy to search.

But what do you guys think? Both seem to be great schools, Philly is an awesome city, Nova has the sun/beach...

I'm mostly worried about rotations. At NSU it seems you have many opportunities to do rotations in larger cities like Miami, Tampa, etc. This I like.

But during my PCOM interview they never said a peep about rotations. Are they done mostly in Philly 🙂thumbup🙂, or do you have to go to places like Washington, PA or Beaver or other rural areas 🙁. Does PCOM focus on sending students to mostly urban clinical training facilities? Maybe JPHazelton can enlighten us?

I wanted to post this in the forum rather than PM so everyone can get educated. Thanks!
