@Mad Jack why?

Cadaver lab isn't all that interactive (prosections), rotations aren't as robust as more established schools, tuition isn't even close to justified by what they give you, high cost of living, Touro chain school reputation. Faculty seemed pretty awesome when I interviewed, other students were very bright and MD-caliber, inside of building was actually pretty nice, decent match list in the NYC area. Overall, a mixed experience that I passed on, it neither wowed me nor left me feeling disheartened.

Also, their seat deposit is offensively large. 4k split in two 2k payments. Wtf.

I took your comment as meaning - it's better than nothing and it will get you where you want to go.

That essentially also goes for LUCOM. And the general consensus on SDN is that LUCOM isn't too great of a school.
