Most of it will be in 1 building, but there is a tour of the campus (lasts about 30mins) before dinner. Itās a small campus but couldnāt hurt to bring a change of shoes if it would make you more comfortable!For anyone who did an on-campus interview, did you walk around a lot? I am debating if I should bring a change of shoes.

Once youāre verified, your app is transmitted! No other steps I believeok, maybe this is a little naiive, but after it says "verified" on AACOMAS, is that when you're being considered for secondaries or is there another step like idk "transmitted" or something before your primary is completed and should then be expecting a secondary?
just now seeing that you got in...how long after your primary on AACOMAS did you recieve a secondary from UIW?Once youāre verified, your app is transmitted! No other steps I believe

They have an info session today at 6pm that current students should be attending! Check out their website to signupHi! Any current medical students from UIWSOM on this thread? I would love to PM you with questions about being a student (nothing about interviews or inappropriate info). Anyone pls PM me if you see this and can spare a few mins. Thanks so much! It would mean a lot!
Yes but you might be able to log out after it and log back in for the interview. Ask.For those who have interviewed already - is attendance for the Deanās presentation required? I signed up for Virtual Interview 2 which is scheduled for 3PM, but I received an email saying that the presentation is at 11AM that same day.
Yes lots of logging out and logging back in for this interview haha. I think the student panel is at 6pm.Yes but you might be able to log out after it and log back in for the interview. Ask.
So itās basically an all day thing even though my interview is at 3PM? I thought the interview day started at 3PM lolYes lots of logging out and logging back in for this interview haha. I think the student panel is at 6pm.
Nope, I think the dean only does his presentation once so you can't phone this one in or watch a recording!So itās basically an all day thing even though my interview is at 3PM? I thought the interview day started at 3PM lol
Ya just follow the schedule in the email closely! Take out the day for it.So itās basically an all day thing even though my interview is at 3PM? I thought the interview day started at 3PM lol
Honestly its pretty chill. Unfortunately bc of the NDA, I can't share any specifics, but I would recommend googling MMI questions, I used the 250 questions on the savvy premed to practice. Also practice up answering the general questions that every school would ask too. You will be fine.Any interview tips? I interview in a couple days and I'm a bit nervous! I havent done an mmi before. Is there role-playing?
Thereās a similar list here Official 2023 Osteopathic Match ThreadView attachment 377297Match list for 2023. Not sure if it was posted somewhere else.
For those who got an interview how long did it take to hear back?
Hi ! I was wondering if you knew more about the exams moving towards MC / board-style questions. I know they previously have been essay-style questions. Do you know if they've completely transitioned over to MC entirely or are the exams still partly essay-based?Just some of my favorite things from the information session. Faculty were all so sweet and welcoming!
- Exams are moving towards multiple choice and more āboard styleā questions
- Switching from Kaplan to combank(I believe thatās what it was)
- Mandatory class is done by 12pm (I think this was always the case
- always gathering student feedback and trying to improve
They are currently 2/3 short answer, 1/3 MCHi ! I was wondering if you knew more about the exams moving towards MC / board-style questions. I know they previously have been essay-style questions. Do you know if they've completely transitioned over to MC entirely or are the exams still partly essay-based?
Thanks for sharing! Hearing lots of love for the new deanš„³I think thereās pros/cons to them, like any test. In my opinion, biggest pro when it comes to short answer is it better prepares you for clinical rotations in year 3/4. Also, it allows you to get partial credit for questions instead of automatically getting it right/wrong. Con would be that itās not the best practice for learning how to answer questions for the Boards (multiple choice questions are). However, I think our Dean is doing a great job at making sure that we see both styles of questions now.
