Emory vs University of Washington
Hi friends! I am super lucky to choose between two great schools, but I am struggling with which program to choose. For background, I am a Washington native and went to UW for undergrad. I have been living in another state for the past year, but I am still looking for a change in scenery and feel like my return to Washington could be too soon for my liking. I haven't been to Atlanta/Emory yet, but the few connections I have at Emory have made me feel truly excited about the SOM, as well as...

another rank list; questions about programs
Right now these are in no particular order:
Northwestern University
UPMC
University of Washington
Emory University
Duke University
Are there any significant differences of these programs' reputation nationally? I know most say to try and train in the region you're interested in working, but I will say I'm less interested in one of these programs due to some circumstances and personal preferences, even though it is the area that I would likely see myself most long-term.
Lastly, will...

Recent Grad AMA
Hello,
I had some free time and with graduation coming up for many current students, I thought it'd be helpful to offer the opportunity to answer any questions people had. Some background on me: I attended University of Washington and currently work for a DSO in Seattle. We do all kinds of procedures including fillings, crowns, molar endo, implants, implant restorations, dentures, etc. Overall it's been a great experience and I think school did just enough to prepare me for work but most of...

Do most medical schools favor their own residents for fellowship/professorship?
If you're interested in academic medicine and have a specific institution in mind, is it in your best interest to try to match there for residency? I have heard mixed things in terms of grad schools in general (ex.: certain fields/programs prefer to recruit professors from other schools in order to get people with a diversity of experience). In particular, I'm wondering about University of Washington. (Source: Student Doctor Network)

Does a RA position look good for dental school?
I am a pre-dental freshman this year at University of Washington-Seattle, and I am planning on becoming a RA this upcoming Winter quarter because there is an opened position.
I find it as an opportunity to improve my communication skills, build community, learn from diverse experiences that I may counter, and other traits.
I am wondering if this is a good idea for me, or if any current dental students has been an RA during their undergrad.
What are some other extracurricular should I...

School list/WAMC (520/3.94/MD/WA URM)
Hello, this is my first post on SDN after being a lurker for many years. I recently received my MCAT score and decided to start thinking about my school list. My top choices would definitely be the University of Washington and OHSU but otherwise I'm not sure where I should apply to. Don't really care about prestige or anything like that, I'm just trying to get in somewhere lol. My plan is to apply the upcoming 2022-23 cycle, so I have some time to bulk up my app a little bit more as well. My...

University of Washington — Seattle vs. RUSH
I am deciding between Rush Medical College and University of Washington — Seattle campus. I was accepted to UW off the WL yesterday, so I kinda already had my mind set on attending Rush, especially since it’s half the cost of UW. Is the prestige of UW worth giving that up? I have to decide by this Friday.
Rent would be covered by a family member so those cancel out. My brother also said he’d cover the difference if I did choose UW. I just was getting pretty excited to go to a new city and...

University of Washington vs Vanderbilt
Hey everyone I'm having a really tough time deciding between these two schools and have no clue where I should go! I would appreciate any help.
UW (Seattle)
Pros
Would be really close to family as well as being in the same time zone as my partner, familiarity with the area
Much cheaper cost of attendance because IS
Ability to travel places for clerkships and be exposed to many clinical environments and ability to be super hands on (also a con though)
A lot of...
