applicationby (no login)your decision on which school to attend should be based on which areas contribute the most to our profession and have the most to offer in terms of good residency opportunities. My opinion is that the Philly, Chicago, and Des Moines schools are the best. I personally wouldn't want to go to school in Harlem, NY where the library shuts down at 4pm and the location is so poor. The hands on clinics in NY; however, will provide an incredible experience...if you don't mind treating Hepatitis B and C patients with AIDS. You'll learn a lot by the NY clinics; but you may want to give it some heavy thought. Your training is most affected by Residency, not school, anyway. You should make your primary goal to be getting the best residency possible so base you school choice on how well they can get their students into quality residencies. Ask the schools 1) how many students in their school received 3 year PM&S residencies 2) how many students did not receive a residency...etc.etc. feel free to contact me. darren from IP address 68.15.100.245 Goto Forum Home |
