Which one would you pick and why?!

Where do you plan on practicing after dschool?

If in Pennsylvania/NJ/Delaware area, then go to Temple.

If in the midwest, go with Midwestern-IL.

Anywhere else, flip a coin.

Neither school is known well outside of its respective region. Thus, if you need to work as an Associate, you'll need the familiarity of the school to land a job. But if you are going to inherit a practice or buy one straight out of dschool, then go with Temple as it's an established program and will surely provide competent clinical experience.

Btw, Temple is located in the ghetto.

I think they're both between 55k and 60k (Temple is slightly less than MW-IL, but only by a couple thousand). I'd pick Temple since it is established, as someone mentioned earlier, even if it is in Philly.

Temple's campus is 14 steps away from the subway, so you won't be in your "ghetto" area for more than a few seconds a day. Temple was awesome!!
