I know there are other posts related to both of these programs, but I was hoping to get feedback from people who faced this very conundrum and/or are currently enrolled at either university.
Went to visit USC for my interview and was incredibly impressed with the university and Dr. Singer. I love how small the program is, as well as how much support they seem to offer. But, I would much rather be in NYC than LA. Ideally, I'd like to go to med school in NYC as well.
I've heard that Columbia's advisors are terrible. Anyone currently in the program have anything to add on this front? According to Columbia there are approx 400 people in the program, which seems like a huge student to advisor ratio (400:3).
Any opinions on this front, as well as about these programs in general, would be enormously appreciated.
Thanks!
