Yes - you are way out on a limb. There are schools with major differences out there. Not 93% vs 95% - more like 70% vs. 100%. I am glad however that you will succeed no matter how bad or good the track record is of the school you attend. Come back and post again after you actually take the COMLEX or USMLE and give us your valuable insights.
I interviewed at 5+ schools and never heard a number below 93%, I also never cared once because passing an exam is your own responsibility. I don't know where/what this 70% school is, but I'd say it was probably a new program and the students they accepted were the issue, not teaching during year 1/2 or perks like Kaplan access or weeks to study. I'll definitely bump this thread with my scores in 2 years ExPC. I stick by my statement ... I'm responsible for my own actions. It's like putting emphasis on a matchlist. It's up to you what you do. Should the 70% numbers be looked into?? Of course, this is unacceptable. However, there is not one single piece of evidence out there that says if a good student chooses to go to a 70% school vs a 90% school they are less likely to pass.
