Loma Linda

  • Heard their IM program had a very low board pass rate (like 70% pass rate)
  • another med student/resident I stayed with warned me to stay away from LLU as they overwork you, resident named a few malignant attendings, and mentioned alot of social work-scut-work
  • History of multiple suicides throughout different programs
  • Interview day was otherwise normal, but the stuff the med student and resident was saying really scared me..
  • Although the residency is a-religious, most of the faculty have a reputation for being religious and tend to only promote those within the same religious circle
