I was also accepted today, and while I'm very thankful for the acceptance, I'm now torn as to what to do.
On one hand, Wayne is in-state and close to home for me, provides a great clinical education, has the curriculum style I like (two-three classes at a time), and has online lectures that I like. On the other, I worry about an "impersonal" feel about Wayne (sort of like one person here described as Wayne feeling like Oakland University, where everyone commutes and does their own thing). Also, I was accepted to a few other schools, some of which have great research opportunities and renowned programs in specialties I'm interested in. So now I don't know what to do and on what basis I should make a decision on *sigh*
Anyway, I would greatly appreciate any advice/extra info that you guys may be able to provide. For example, is there a community feel to Wayne amongst the class or does everyone just do their own thing? Also, is it difficult to obtain research opportunities at Wayne? I know I want to do research in med school and would like to go to a school that helps in this regard; I haven't seen anything at Wayne advertised like a research program setup to help students in this regard. Is there one? Thanks in advance and good luck to those who are still waiting to hear, I hope you all get in as you seem like you'd make for great classmates and future colleagues. Cheers. 👍
What a tease.
