I need help deciding which school to pay my deposit to (by this week haha).
I would chose CCOM in a heartbeat if it weren’t so expensive, but it might be worth it if CCOM could ultimately help me match into a more competitive residency.
KCOM PROS
-lower tuition and rent
-oldest DO school
-ultrasound curriculum
KCOM CONS
-more emphasis on OMM?
-letter grading
-have to move for rotations
-not stoked on the location but it would probably be fine since I’ll be busy anyways
CCOM PROS
-less emphasis on OMM it seems (which means more time to study for boards)
-rotations are all in the Chicago area
-match list seems to have more specialties
-may have more research opportunities in Chicago
CCOM CONS
-tuition is hella high
-higher rent
-also has letter grading instead of P/F
