Hey everyone!
I was wondering what sort of feedback people have about the University of Michigan and/or UCSD for an MD/PhD. Any information would be helpful, especially feedback about the med schools at each institution.
I'm having a really tough time deciding -- UMich has a *great* med school and a large, well-organized MD/PhD program, but it science is lacking as compared to UCSD. UCSD has an awesome location (the beaches, weather, and campus are amazing! and is a mecca for science (with the Salk Institute, Scripps, and UCSD within walking distance), but I've heard nasty things about the med school. Are the rumors about stressed-out students and arcane curriculum true?
Thanks for your help!!! And congrats to fellow wait-listers that are finally getting accepts right now!
