everything mayo said about south is true except some areas have more traffic than others. One bad thing is you pretty much have to move around your entire second year while if u go to emory or case u can do a lot of rotations near the school or at least in the same state. Also not all clinical sites pay for your housing and you have to travel around, could cost a lot of money. idk im not there yet.
i have heard nova has a really nice mock OR, but the students there I have emailed with (two) said they wish they had gone somewhere with better first year clinical sites. I have also seen students complain on here about the same thing.
the case grads where we do clinicals seem to think they had much better clnical experiances in their first year. i dont know if its true. They also said all your rotations the housing is free. idk if its true
my program director had nice things to say about UMKC.
two new programs will open up in the next year or two
