^^^ also for the people with interviews, when were you complete? Just trying to gauge if there seems to be a chronological order or its by stats for II

Complete 6/30. I'm a lower-stat applicant, so I don't think stats played much of a role in getting an earlier II for me 😅

Honestly no idea… but I’ve heard that DO schools don’t want to be considered a safety so they turn down applicants with higher stats thinking they would go elsewhere

I think it’s more about demonstrated perceived interest in osteopathic medicine than higher stats. There are an increasing number of high stats applicants accepted to and matriculating at DO schools. You’re right, high tier DO schools don’t want to be considered a backup and don’t have to be because they have a great applicant pool. There are now multiple DO schools with higher Mcat/GPA averages than some MD schools. They take the most qualified applicants with a demonstrated interest in osteopathic medicine.

If you get the chance, I actually recommend you reach out to admissions and ask them for your interview feedback. I was waitlisted from the first school I interviewed at and they were able to give me really good feedback that I worked on and carried with me to my future interviews.

How long did it take for people to hear back after their interview? And people who were accepted did your interview go really well?

Interviewed 9/20, heard back 10/4.

Interview was great - conversational and pretty laid back. A great experience.

Looks like it’s about a month so far this cycle, I interviewed 9/6 and heard back yesterday like some others on this thread. Those that heard back one week ago were interviewed one week before me. Interview was 30 minute Q&A with two standardized Q’s and a lot of chatting afterwards about your life and stuff. I was interviewed by one faculty and one ms2. Low stress, just be human.

Nevertheless, those are great stats and i’m sure you’ll get in to ur top choice. Goodluck

 

[pufferfish3]

Did anyone else have trouble opening the pre recorded welcome session?

 

[Rocky1976$]

Nevertheless, those are great stats and i’m sure you’ll get in to ur top choice. Goodluck
