TouroCOM-Harlem vs Middletown

[randomguy123456]

1. Does anyone know which one is better and for what reasons? What are the pros and cons for each location?

2. Additionally, is TouroCOM-Harlem a good osteopathic medical school if I have future interest of wanting to specialize in dermatology or urology?

Wouldn't the schools have similar education/clinical offerings? Campuses aren't even that far away from one another.

Not necessarily, the Middletown campus is fairly new since it opened in 2014 and it's also a satellite campus. Harlem is more established and has a higher accepted avg GPA and MCAT.

they both emphasize primary care.

Cons of harlem: it's in harlem.

Don't all osteopathic medical schools emphasize primary care?

ah okay, then harlem is probably a safer choice if choosing b/w the two?
