@AlteredScale

Two questions:

Why do you believe AZCOM would provide you with the type of osteopathic medical education you are seeking?

Why should AZCOM accept you into this year's class?

And a copy of your CV/Resume

Where may I find last year's AZCOM thread?
 
Complete! It looks like the II is pretty quick turnaround after being complete. That still accurate?

Does anyone know the matriculation stats for AZCOM? How many people interviewed get accepted?
 
Secondary received! All written up but emailed to ask whether they waive that fee for those of us that qualified for assistance. I read that they and CCOM will waive if you query.

Do you get your II via email or just check the portal

On a thread from another year somebody said 75% of the people they interview get accepted... but take that with a grain of salt, This is a he said, she said, he said, she said, they said, i said, kinda thing.

Hm... I've been trying to search for some data regarding this. There's gotta be a site floating somewhere, or even a thread! MD schools have it all transparent.
 
Fee waived and secondary submitted. Hoping for that sweet, sweet II.

I'm excited about this II. But what does everyone think about the tuition $?

It's a concern that I will take into consideration if I receive multiple acceptances. It's so dang steep.
Agreed! Holy crap. But if it's the one that says yes, then YES! Anyone else interviewing Tuesday 8/29??

Looking at last years thread it was around January that they said they would review the file again and then interviews from January all the way until around may. It seems like AZCOM screens for a MCAT cutoff for the first batch of interviews and acceptances but Im not sure what the number is.

Thank you for letting me know. Hopefully I get an II in Jan.
I can agree with you about the cutoff because my score is quite low. Especially the CARS.
