I know the vs. threads are getting a little old, but what the hell, ill post one anyways. $ is due for both schools in December, so decision time is coming soon. I know that PCOM has older tradition, very set rotations, and pretty good scores. AZCOM seems to be not as established as far as rotations and such, but their board scores and residency matches are awesome. Any advice from students and applicants would be great, thanks!
 
Forget board scores and rotations. Your scores and your roation experience are completely up to you.

Look at the match sites and look at what residency program each school has to offer.

What sort of things are important to you?

Class size, facilities, location, living expenses?
