George Washington vs University of Miami
Hello everyone, I am having a tough time here. The big thing for me is that I would prefer GW but feel it might hinder me from getting into a more competitive specialty.

Hello everyone, I am having a tough time here. The big thing for me is that I would prefer GW but feel it might hinder me from getting into a more competitive specialty.
GW Pros
- Honors/Pass/Fail (compared to Miami's grading)
- Commitment to community service and giving back to the area i grew up in
- NIH for cool research in summer
Cons
- Seem to barely have any matches in specialties i'm interested in (surgical sub.)
- 40k total more expensive than miami (not a big deal to me)
Miami Pros
- Incredible match list, including people who match back to NE
- Lots research opportunities
- Weather and Culture of city
- reputation seems better than GW (?)
Cons
- Location, I don't know anyone in Florida and i am not looking to make a big move right now
- Students are notoriously unhappy
- You get GRADES and are ranked by quartiles
- They're building some new facilities, but won't be ready for our class
