HELP! LECOM 2+4, Case Western, Boston University
I’m currently committed to Case Western but recently got opportunities to go to both BU or Lecom 2+4 and I’m having a lot of trouble deciding. This seems like a pretty good problem to have though.
The 6 year lecom program is such a good opportunity, I feel like I’d have to stress less about getting into med school, and I’d graduate med school by 24! I do want to be a doctor but I am more inclined towards harder specialties like plastic surgery, anesthesiology, and derm.
Case western has so many hospitals within walking distance and I feel like I’d end up being really successful there, however a lot of people there told me the social scene isn’t great and there’s not much to do.
I’m a little worried about my chances of getting into med school without a gap year if I go to BU. But there’s still plenty of opportunities and the city itself seems to be a really lively and upbeat opportunity that’s more young person friendly. Plus BU is just a great school too.
Idk, any advice would really be helpful! :))) thank you!
