Southern Gal here, currently in medschool at NY.
I'm looking at Vandy, MUSC, UIC, and Stanford for my top choice (how did I get California invite.... Go figure!)
I was amped about Vandy for personal reasons, and am thinking of making it my first choice. I liked the residents (thought that doesn't really matter as 2/3 will be gone when i arrive). I like nightfloat system. Excellent matches past few years, even locking up two ASOPRs spots in one class
Didn't like low cataract numbers, and still dont understand the cause given their large cachement and 2 VAs. Noticed they've had 3 faculty members leave in the past few months.
So warning signs of leaky ship or nothing to worry about ?
Anyone else had any sense there were unaddressed issues at the interview. As far as reputation, I get the sense these four programs are clustered at the same tier. Anyone facing similar decision regarding Vandy vs ??? with some input.
