About me:
Married, did my undergrad in the PNW
Very outdoorsy, like to hike and run (played lax in college)
Prob interested in either primary care or a mid-competitive specialty (neuro, EM, anesthesia)
Like research but it isn't 100% do or die
UCSD ($)
Pros: Loved San Diego and love this school. Best interview day feeling by far, and I just got that great feeling here
Everyone seemed like they loved the school
Subsidized housing in La Jolla
Chance to solidify my spanish
Cons: Far from my family, less prestigious (?? not really sure if that's true)
UWSOM Seattle ($)
Pros: Close to family
Don't really care about residency but I'd want to practice in the PNW someday
More prestigious (??)
Cons: Didn't like the school as much when I interviewed. Students seemed stressed
Lower step scores
Weather!! I have mild SAD and I feel like this environment would make me more down during med school.
Mayo Clinic AZ ($$$)
Pros: Reputation, research
Cons: Cost, location, far from family
Help!! I am so stuck. Leaning towards either UCSD or UW
