Can someone please help me? I am trying to weigh out the differences and advantages etc of both these schools, but still am having a hard time deciding. Can any of you that know about these shcools or just go there tell me what you know and think??

Well- I don't know much about PCOM- but as far as UMDNJ goes-

they have an extremely small class size- which means good faculty attention

as far as location goes- the school itself isn't in the middle of an urban area (the hospital's another story)

the students are extremely friendly & helpful there

good luck in your decision!
 
PCOM is about 3X the size of UMDNJSOM.

Awesome rotation sites.

Awesome reputation.

Very old DO school = lots of graduates.

50% placement into specialty residencies.

Amazing facilities.

People are very nice.

Both are great schools, but very different. You have one heck of a decision.

Best of luck.
