Hey OrthoGate,
I know this question has been discussed at times in the past, but there has been much flux recently in terms of staff between programs. I am trying to decide on a West Coast away, and obviously the reviews that people post after they Match will be helpful, but I am trying to decide before that happens because of time constrains of my medical school that I don't want to get into. I'm looking for a well-balanced academic program with good didactics and a great research infrastructure. Can people shed any light on the programs below based on what they know about them? I would love if some people who interviewed at these this cycle could chime in even though they don't find out about the match for a while. In no order, these are the programs I am currently looking into.
UCSF
UCLA
Stanford
UCSD
USC
Thanks so much! I appreciate any and all insight anyone can provide.
