well there are just a couple of factors to cosider
Where would you like to live, Haifa or Tel Aviv? Apperantly more things happen (social) at Tel Aviv.
The class sizes at sackler are much larger than Technion. Technion got really small classes, so that can be either bad or good.
In terms of getting residencies in states, they both got the same stats. Sackler is bit more known in NY, and one of the reasons is the number of students graduating from sackler's program is much larger than Technion (again class size)
but come'n it's Technion, it's very well known, it is one of the top universities of the world. Noble prizes, research....
But what is important in graduating from foriegn medical school, is how well you'd perform in school, and your rank among others.
I've heard that sackler students get almost the second yr off to study for USMLE, whereas at Technion you got to do all by yourself.
technion's calender goes by israeli schools, sackler goes by american.
i don't know about sackler, but you can do your electives in US at technion
well good luck with your decision

one more thing, i know that technion students were able to get into competative residencies
go to Technion's class of 2006 and NY-rob gives a list

They send it by mail. and for Irina2, you should definitely pick sackler and let me lay down the reasons for ya. First of all the school is in Tel Aviv, say no more. Second of all the Sackler name is definitely more well known than technion and gets better placements into residency from what I have heard. The lady that interviewed me was a sackler alumni and psychiatrist working in nyc, can't get much better than that. and the third reason, you already know a cool person haha. WEll goodluck with the decision and maji, don't sweat it, you will get in.

I got a Sackler interview invite just yesterday. Man, they are fast. Tel Aviv University if my #1 choice.... I hope I get accepted.

Does anyone have any advice for my interview...

Hi , I have just recieved a letter from the school saying I am wait listed .
I would like to know from the people accepted when is the due date for you to say if you are going to sackler or not.
I just need a date to look forward too
Thank you.

Just relax, they dont ask much, but Id come with some good questions for them bout the school. Course, who knows if that worked for me, will find out soon

Does anyone know when Sackler orientation begins for 2006? Anyone have any idea how we are suppose to find appartments? Is there an option to live in a dorm? Anyone have any overwhelming reason why one should chose Sackler over Technion?

There is a plane that leaves for Israel around August 16th two weeks before school actually begins. Those two weeks are dedicated to orientation and finding apartments/people to live with. I believe school begins the 4th of September.

Two and a half weeks since interview, everyday checking the mail is nerve wracking... I sure hope I hear back soon, and its good news.

I interviewed on the 18th of April and I believe i went good. The interviewer said I was a diverse and good applicant but worried that I was interviewed late and might not get in. She expressed real concern about it.
