decision

I have been studying dentistry in India for three years now. Unlike the United States-where one would have to complete four years of predent- Indian dental schools accept students straight out of high school. The bachelors level dental program here is five years long. In my first three years I...

I'll make two quick points first - yes I do realize that I am very lucky that I even get to make a decision and yes I realize that I'm posting in medical student forum, although it makes a lot more sense to ask you guys vs other premeds. I've been accepted to UMass and Jefferson (inb4 not...

Hi all, I'm trying to decide Tufts vs NYU (accepted off the waitlist). Money is about equivalent, slightly more to Tufts. I've lived in Boston before but not in NYC, although I think either I'd be okay with. Are there other factors I should be thinking about in the decision? Any...

Hi all, I'm a longtime lurker and would really love some input, especially from current students at LMU and/or Touro NY Middletown, as I'm really struggling with this decision. I feel like I've read nearly every thread from the past couple years about LMU and Touro NY (not much about Middletown...

Hi Everyone, I am deciding between Tufts and Scripps (today), and I was wondering if any of you had any opinions? I am currently living in NY, not sure if I want to be on the East or West coasts for med school. Tufts: offers a guaranteed interview at its medical school, $11-13K cheaper...

It's April of MS3 year, and by this time in the year 75% of my classmates are committed to a specialty. It seems the other 25% are down to two. Meanwhile, I am still grasping at straws and extremely nervous that I will end up applying Internal Medicine simply for the lack of a definitive (and...

I know there have been other threads, but none within the past year or so. I have acceptances to both schools and I'm really having a hard time deciding. I initially got 4 DO offers and was ready to assume that as my future, but then I got one MD offer, that I didn't really consider getting at...

I've been accepted into my two top choice programs and desperately need help choosing between earning my Psy.D. at Fuller Theological Seminary or Stanford's PGSP Consortium. Fuller's faith-based program is not a deciding factor, and I much prefer the location of Fuller in Pasadena than...

I'm struggling to decide which medical school to attend- UMN Twin Cities vs UC Denver. As far as I can tell, both universities are similarly ranked and are good prospects. I'm from MN so my family and friends are there. But Denver is Denver and I love the idea of settling in Colorado in the...

Third year student trying to decided which programs to apply for. At first, I was strongly for emergency medicine, but I was surprised by how much I enjoyed my OB/GYN rotation. I really liked both rotations, but both have had their cons that are keeping me from committing to either 100%. With EM...

I've been accepted to both schools and have begun making a pros/cons list for each school, but I'm still a bit unsure on where my priorities currently lie for choosing a school. Perhaps any other students who are thinking about attending either of these schools can help me discover more...

Hey guys, I am in serious dilemma of whether to apply this year or not as I know it is later in the game and being an international student (Canadian) gives me a disadvantage. Here are my stats and I was just verified today: • MCAT score 503 (P/S 128, CARS 124, B/S 127, Psy 124) which I think...
