I'm still going back and forth regarding which transitional program to rank higher- New York Hospital Queens or Flushing. Any thoughts?

NYHQ better facilities, Flushing has less surgery/med floor months so you get more of a chance to dabble in other electives. According to interns who interviewed at both places, Flushing is more "cush", but I'm not sure if this is a good thing. I think NYHQ offer subsidized housing at the "cockroach hotel" down the street. I think salarywise, they were similar. At either of these places, the transitional interns will be the only US grads there. There is a very Asian/south asian feel to both of these hospitals due to its location.
