Hi all,

So Im having a hard time deciding between TUCOM, CA and AZCOM. I know that both are excellent schools and each offers many opportunities to their students. I also know that it is damn hard to find any evidence to clearly point to which is a better school. Does anyone know how these schools stack up against each other with respect to residency placement into specialty programs (I hope to go into Emergency Med.), avg. scores/first time pass rates on COMLEX, avg. scores on USMLEs, reputation, matching into allopathic residencies, etc. Also, I currently live in CA and hope to eventually settle down here. Does anyone know if I will have trouble getting into an Emergency Med. residency in CA if I go AZCOM? Will I have better odds if I go to TUCOM?


Any and all feedback is greatly appreciated! Thanks!
