Your residency slot is mostly determined by your step 1 board scores (both COMLEX and USMLE) and your letters of recommendation. Grades are thirdly important, then tied for fourth place is the reputation of the school and your class rank. If going to an academic residency is so important to you, you should have gone MD. Most residency programs that regularly admit DOs won't place too much weight on what school you went to. e.g., if your scores are tied with someone from KCOM and you went to BCOM, you'll both likely get an interview invite. Maybe you won't, but after you're through the door, it's all on you. Don't expect KCU COM to make you superior to anyone in the DO world, because it doesn't. Likewise, don't expect going to BCOM or any other new XCOM to hold you back... If you're a good student, you'll get in somewhere where you'll be happy.
... as for that guy who kicked the hornets nest a few posts above, yes, Deans and school faculty do monitor this website. And they probably know who you are. I have reasons to believe that the schools work with the staff here at SDN. If true, they can trace your IP address where you log on back to your house. Coupled with the fact that many of you have posted your MCAT scores, GPA, and much of your ECs, please note that you are NOT anonymous here. Sober up before you post, or you could find your acceptance withdrawn.
Rule of thumb on social media: don't post ANYTHING you wouldn't show the Dean to his/her face.
