How about which ones I get into?

For the schools that I got into, the student community is probably going to be the biggest factor. I feel that my schools are reasonably close in a lot of other factors, so seeing how well I get on with the people I'll be working with will be huge.

i always look ahead to the faaaaar away future
so in deciding where i was gonna go, i looked at match lists and location
i wanna do my neurology residency at MGH, so i looked for schools who's students were placed there. Also, if i wanna end up at MGH, it wouldnt be a bad idea to be close enough to mingle w/ faculty/researchers/docs over there, maybe even shadow over the summer, so i could have a couple of contacts. so i decided to stay in boston, which left me 3 options, one of wich was obvious i was NOT getting into, and the other one i hated after going to interview there, so i ended up picking BU.
