If you are accepted to: WVSOM, LECOM-E, LECOM-B, TOURO-MI, TOURO-NV, KCOM
 
I would choose LECOM-Bradenton because it is a brand-new facility, instruction is PBL, and it is in my beautiful home state of Florida!😳
 
LECOM-Erie - Many different pathways offered, Cheap tuition, Overall cheap cost of living as well.
 
KCOM. Great reputation, solid academics, early clincial experiences, great match list, staff that is very committed to teaching, etc...

If I had to pick from Touro-NV, Touro-CA, LECOM-Erie, and WVSOM (ones I got accepted to; not sure about the others!), I'd pick the following:

1) Touro-NV. So awesome, loved the place.
2) WVSOM. Also very awesome.
3) Touro-CA. A bit less awesome.
4) LECOM. Least awesome of the four. In my book.
 
So out of all those schools, you really don't have any you prefer? If location isn't an issue, I'd go for KCOM. It's got the history, good reputation, good match list, and the students appear to be happy.

I agree, LECOM-Bradenton is wonderful and would be an excellent choice.
 
Personally I don't care. I'll go whereever accepts me (when I apply) and is the cheapest. But out of those listed, if I were choosing based on other factors, I would go with my above choice of KCOM.

You really can't go wrong with KCOM. They've been around forever, and you will get great OMM training if you go there. But, like everybody else said, don't listen to me 😀

I was looking more at the fact that it seems to be in the location with the least amount of detracting factors (not to mention that the faculty and staff at KCOM are really nice).
