What ’s everyone’s opinion of PCOM-South GA
Hey guys the title says it all. I’m looking for an opinion about PCOM-South GA.
I’ve been accepted there and waitlisted a couple places.
I chose PCOM South Georgia even though it’s a new program because of its affiliation with PCOM and the numerous opportunities available as the first class. I also want to practice in a rural environment. What do people usually think of these newer schools with an affiliation with an established program? (Source: Student Doctor Network)

PA end goal. Where do I go from here?
Hello everyone,
A little about myself. I have been working as an EMT in the state of Georgia for about four years now. I have two months left of my paramedic course. When I graduate from my paramedic school I will have an associates degree. Halfway through paramedic school, I decided that I did not want to be in EMS my whole career but that my experience in EMS can be a good stepping stone for higher career opportunities. I decided after much thought that I want to become a physician...

wRVU Compensation Rates
Hey guys,
Just asking around since I have spent the majority of last 2 days while on PTO searching for Median wRVU rates on AMGA/MGMA. Have any of you found any median rates for the Northeast (Pennsylvania) vs Southeast (Georgia, Florida) for newly minted FM docs doing outpatient only?
Have seen a couple offers now with wRVU rates in $38 from $42 in rural regions in PA and did not know if this is expected or on low side.
Appreciate any input. (Source: Student Doctor Network)

DARTMOUTH vs. U. MIAMI vs. RUSH
Hi everyone, I would love to hear your thoughts!
Info: I want to match either in Massachusetts or Georgia (family ties to both), but prefer to be in the south long term. I'm interested in Emergency Medicine/Trauma or OB/GYN, but do not want to rule out Derm/Infectious Disease or whatever may absorb my attention. I am very used to the cold, but really wanted to end up in Georgia this cycle (warm, but it can get chilly outside = perfect) - that clearly did not work out [emoji28].
I am very...

Please post the secondary questions once you receive them. Check last year's thread in the 2017-2018 SSD forum for last year's questions, they tend to not change very much from year to year.
Good luck to everyone applying!

Stuck between two colleges
I have a 3.85 GPA from Arizona State University, but it’s an online degree - I live in Georgia. Originally wanted to be a PA, but decided to go the MD route or I’d forever regret it. Now I’m deciding between which college to go to. Here are my choices:
University of Georgia
PROS: highly respected university in the southeast, tons of research opportunities with publishing opportunities, more rigorous work to better prepare me for med school, amazing culture and lifestyle, great sports teams...
