yigit -- as for your question about rankings, whenever I did feel that was starting to influence my decision-making, I tried to push it completely from my mind, and concentrate on stuff like curriculum, clinical opportunities, research opportunities, location, and finances. Ultimately, I did end up going with the "higher ranked" school, but because it was a better fit for what I wanted out of med school, not because of it's ranking. I'm withdrawing from the waitlist of a higher-ranked school, where I supposedly have a good chance at getting in, because I know I wouldn't be as happy there, thus I wouldn't go, no matter what it's ranking is.•
