Just when I thought around 3pm today, I was going to decide on Temple(1yr $8k), NYCPM(4yr 24k) sends me a package to punch me in the thought box. I have always been a fan of the ideology "Go with the money". I assumed NYCPM offered me no scholarship since it was not listed on the acceptance letter, like Temple/Kent. I wholeheartedly believe most learning is done during clinical and residency. Now my scale has shifted to NYCPM.
My Thoughts
-I hate cities and I hate not having a car, so immediately both are tied.
-I want to do a residency in NJ, both tied again.
-Potential for more scholarship at NYC(6k+other merit scholarships 2,3, and 4yr).
-I liked Temple classrooms better/learning environment Y1/2.
-I like NYCPM clinical year better, more trauma and hospital exposure according to student doctors I talked to.
-Mom, girlfriend and all my friends live on Long Island still.
