I went to Tufts and have been visiting CMU this week with my son, talking with lots of students and staff there. My OPINION is that CMU may have an edge in overall reputation (but NOT sure that it’s the same for med schools), but that CMU is also more competitive and the students tend to work harder and not have as much fun. I think Tufts is more welcoming, less competitive, more cooperative among students (and faculty).
