I would appreciate any guidance or suggestions with my current school debate.

LMU- Knoxville
- I went to undergrade an hour away and some of my best friends are in that area. Additionaly, it seems like it would be a better way of life for my wife than Hattiesburg. However, I am concerned with the virtual classes between campus's and the addition of a third campus starts giving me the vide that the whole medical school is design to be a money grab instead of trying to develop the best physicians possible. I have also heard some people having issues w their rotations, but I am not sure if that was a rumor.

WCUCOM
- I really like the low cost tuition and how helpful admin has been with me. I am not crazy about the rotation sites and Would consider having doing my own 4th year rotations back in my home state (pro) as many of my family members are well respected physicians and could help me set them up. However, I don't know if this is recommended. My main concern with this school is the location @Goro.

I am unsure of what to do, because in my head, at the end of the day both schools likely have the ability to make me a great physician.
 
WCUCOM has been an incredible experience for me.
most of the professors are truly amazing, dedicated and supportive.The area is peaceful, and there's a surprising amount to enjoy: great restaurants, a zoo, and other hidden gems. Personally, I have little to no complaints.

The school has opened so many doors for me—covering costs to attend conferences, offering abundant research opportunities, and encouraging student involvement every step of the way. The faculty foster such a positive, uplifting atmosphere, and I honestly wouldn’t want it any other way!
