I have acceptances to 3 great schools; UCLA, UCI and LLUSM.
Because they are all good I'm having difficulty deciding which one to choose.
I have eliminated LLU mainly due to financial reasons (but I may be doing HPSP through the military so it isn't completely out of the running). It does look like a great school with supportive faculty and new facilities. Students all seemed happy. While I am christian, i'm not sure if I want to put up with the chapel and lifestyle requirements.
UCLA is said to be a great school, but on my interview day it just looked worn out and tired (like a great football player past his prime talking about the glory days). That and the surrounding area kinda sucks. The students didn't seem happy on interview day either.
UCI may not be ranked as high as UCLA, but it looks like it has better facilities and more support from fellow students. It also has a pretty big focus for Emergency Medicine which is my main interest. The students here seemed to really enjoy the school too.
As I stand now, I'd have to go with UCI... but I was hoping you guys might be able to provide arguments for or against any of these schools so I can make an informed decision.
