Sherman College is small, but still dedicated to teaching true chiropractic. I and those who have taken the national boards with me have had a fairly high pass rate (parts I through III so far). I have had some excellent professors in philosophy and technique, and some great case doctors to work with in the Health Center. I can think of one professor in particular who is a terrible teacher, but every school has at least a couple of those. Tuition continues to rise, but we are still the lowest in the nation in regard to tuition and living costs. Even weighing the good with the bad, I can honestly say I would still choose to go to Sherman College to learn how to be a chiropractor.
