At the school

This is more of a concern about this school. I was accepted elsewhere and I'm incredibly torn. I wonder why Rush does not report to the US News survery that leads to medical school ranking. I know that it may be frivolous to rely solely on rankings in the selection of a school, especially considering that Rush is a place I can see myself spend the next few years of my life at, however, the reputation of your medical school still carries some weight in the subsequent residency placement. I guess, if you're interviewing here in the future, make sure to ask this question, and clarify (for your own peace of mind if you decide to go there) the politics behind this process. Is their reputation so impaired, or, in fact, historicaly poor, that they feel it shouldn't be reported? Where exactly do they rank?
