Where should I move? Best State to be In-state

[pianola]

OH has 8 medical schools and 6 are public schools.

PUBLIC
1) Ohio State University
2) University of Cincinnati
3) University of Toledo
4) Wright State University
5) Northeastern Ohio Universities College of Medicine
6) Ohio University (DO)

PRIVATE
1) Cleveland Clinic Lerner College of Medicine (tuition-free)
2) Case Western Reserve University

Wow, I didn't realize Ohio was such a good state med-school-wise. I nearly applied to the Cleveland Clinic.

And for in-staters, tuition at Baylor is comparable to that of the public schools. Baylor receives funding from the state as well, so ~75% of students are in-state.

Florida

Public: (mostly accept in-state)
University of Florida
Florida State University
University of South Florida
University of Central Florida
Florida International University

Private:
University of Miami (Private but has way higher cut-offs for OOS so it's easier as an in-stater)

I want to go to Baylor. . . really, really bad. What are the TX residency requirements? Just live and work there for a year? Buy property?. . . and how significantly would moving to TX increase my chances? Any help is appreciated

Wow...a 3.91 GPA and 33 MCATs and still didn't get in? I'm actually going the same route as you, but my GPA is nowhere close.

Texas or Ohio.

I do not agree with the advice to move to OH for in-state success.

A couple of things:

-Case Western gives no in-state preference
- Ohio State gives minimal instate consideration
- UC gives minimal-moderate instate consideration
- Toledo not too sure about, but seems to follow UC guidelines
-Wright State gives heavy instate preference
- Northeastern Ohio is probably the weirdest of all schools and only prefers its own undergraduates

On a per-capita basis and as far as entering statistics go, West Virginia basically waves its residents in (27-28 you should be golden)

I would argue that a better chance exists also for Kentucky and Texas.

Just my two cents, I am sure its debatable.
