Where the hell is the Univ of Nevada? Dammit I want a recount!
 
Sanford? As in "...& Sons"?
 
I voted for my school, but I voted objectively. It is by far, the best medical school that I have ever attended.
 
i cannot believe someone had the patience to put together this poll.
 
of the top 10 schools, only p&s has no votes:rolleyes:

I cannot believe someone thought this poll would be useful.

My sentiments exactly. On the other hand, this is an extremely OCD post... and who on SDN doesn't have at least *some* OCDness in them? :D

OK, listen you OP you... don't you know ANYTHING about psychology? You put the top 10 schools in the top 10 spots! How can this thread be objective if the first schools we see are those? This poll is bogus and filled with confounding variables.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOO :smuggrin:

So True!
My vote goes to the first Cali school to accept me... Is that allowed?
 
It'd be better if you just ask everyone to rate each school on some sort of scale. Otherwise, if everyone was truthful, Harvard and JHU would probably get all the votes. I'd also incorporate avg board scores if anyone can get their hands on it.

My vote is for Hopkins even though I didn't even apply there
 
Hm. I wonder if someone will post what is the 2nd best medical school immediately after this one?

Seriously though, I think anything in the top ten is just about equal. *shrug*
 
Where's UT Memphis???
 
bump :p bump bump
 
UCSF(and several others) > Washu U?

Gimme a break.

His OCD prevented him from taking these considerations into account. Typical SDNer.

Actually you give US a break. WashU is a good school, but they are ovverated by US News. UCSF, Penn, Duke, Hopkins, and Harvard are certainly better schools.

Umm, generally, no. Harvard/hopkins? sure.
 
University of California, (Fill in the blank).

go bears!
 
The title of this poll should read:

So where are you going to be attending/ already attending medical school this year?
