Hello everyone, I’ve been fortunate enough to be accepted to Texas A&M College of Dentistry and Woody L. Hunt School of Dental Medicine. I am having the hardest time deciding, here is a list of pros and cons of each:
TAMCOD
Pros:
-established
-diversity
-tuition slightly cheaper
Cons:
-have heard students are lacking to reach clinical requirements
-do not have family there
-high cost of living
WLHSDM
Pros:
-early clinical exposure
-lots of modern dental technology
-low cost of living
Cons:
-new school, no stats on board passing rates
-no diversity
-very little traditional dentistry techniques
I am from El Paso, so my support system would be close if I stayed. On the other hand, Dallas is such a diverse and fun city. I do want to eventually practice in El Paso one day but I would really want to get my feet wet in a big city such as Dallas. Would appreciate any input thank you
