I know, I know, there are a million and one comparisons between med schools on SDN. But hopefully others can derive benefit from this one as well.
Penn State V. Temple.
Here is a bit about myself.
I am out of state from NYC. I am more interested in clinical rather than research. I come from Brooklyn, which is very city like. I am not sure how much ($) Temple is for OOS, but I assume it is in the same ball park as Penn State. I know Penn State has more money backing it with a possibly better rep (?). You see interesting cases in Temple due to its surrounding environment. Lastly, for me at least, proximity is somewhat a factor. Hershey (Penn State) is 3 hours away while Philly is about 1 hour and 45 min (factors in if you come home for the weekend here and there).
Other than that I may not know too much about the schools themselves (i.e. who has a better internal medicine base?) And other important questions. I honestly don't know what I should be asking.
I thank you in advance for assisting me in this time of need!!!
