An interesting comparison but I'd like your input. Both are great programs and you'd probably get amazing training at both. I'd say they are probably both top 20 programs but definitely not in the elite group of UCSF/Stanford/Duke/Penn/Columbia/etc.
But on reputation, I'd say UChicago is (arguably) the best program in Chicago while BIDMC, while Harvard-affiliated, is probably not as reputable as MGH/BWH.
I know the naysayers will say "the best program is the one that fits you best" and that "reputation doesn't matter" but I'm looking to land a fellowship/job in a yet undetermined location so reputation actually does matter to some extent. So please, humor me.
