Ouch...next time I'll go back through years of posts before commenting. I had my secondary complete for PCOM 7/28, so yeah 6 months does seem pretty late. Thanks for the feedback though.
I was thinking of the DO/MBA, but I don't know if it is a necessity if I want to have a private practice. Also, does anyone know/have the book list for the 2014 class?Congrats! Which dual program are you looking into? I've thought about doing a DO/MPH, but I read that some residency programs incorporate an MPH so perhaps I'll just wait and do that.
Did anyone interview on Jan 13? I got a letter from PCOM at my parents house but during the interview i was told that we wouldn't hear for 3-4 weeks. it's only been a week and half and i already have a letter. has this happened to anyone else? i'm really afraid its bad news if it got here a 2 weeks before the scheduled date.
i just checked my e-mail, and a few hours ago they sent me the following message-- so check your e-mail if you have trouble logging in!
Dear Student,
Oops, we discovered that there was a technical glitch in the assigning of your 6-digit numeric password that appeared on the letter that accompanied your New Student Binder. Instead of 6 digits appearing on your letter only 5 digits appeared. You will be receiving a letter in the mail with the correct password. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Have a great weekend.

I was thinking of the DO/MBA, but I don't know if it is a necessity if I want to have a private practice. Also, does anyone know/have the book list for the 2014 class?
Sorry if this has already been asked: for current students, do you use mainly the lecture notes/power point for studying, or do you need to have textbooks for every class?
it has been 4 weeks since i got the complete email... still waiting!
PCOM IT department is probably the worse IT department I know. I wish PCOM would put more money into them, but good thing I only use them for printing.
Hey Everyone!
First time poster, but I've always just browsed these forums and they've always given me sound advice.
I decided to apply a wee-bit late to PCOM's Philly and Georgia Campuses, aka I just applied right now
My cGPA is a 3.53 with a Science of 3.34
MCAT of 25S (9 PS, 9V, 7BS)
Just wanna know my chances according to all of you. I am part of a 7 year BS/DO program at NYIT, and although I just need to get a 26 to be shooed into NYCOM (I am taking the MCAT this Friday again for that purpose) I still just want to know if any DO school would even look twice at me.
Thanks!

hi all-
just got back from the interview today and i absolutely LOVE PCOM (even despite the monsoon we were in)! i was thoroughly impressed with everyone we encountered throughout the day. the facilities are beautiful and they seem to really care about the students. the interview was very laid back and conversational. i enjoyed speaking with my interviewers and they seemed genuinely interested in getting to know me better. i'd say on a 1-10 scale, stress level once in the interview was a 2 or 3 (and that was mostly on my part, not by anything the interviewers did). All in all a great experience! the asst dean of admissions mentioned that we should know in approx 3 weeks... so fingers crossed until then!
for anyone who has been accepted and received the binder,
have any of you had any issues logging into nucleus and your e-mail? i logged into nucleus just fine with the temp. password, however that password didn't work when i tried to get into e-mail. i figured maybe i just had to change my temp. password, and when i went to follow the directions to change it (i.e. go to "my account" and change it) i didn't even have a "my account" to click on...ahh.....i tried in 2 browsers with no luck....anyone else have a similar issue?
thanks!
I'm not sure if I'm reading the 2009-2010 Catalog correctly. Does anyone know if anatomy is only taught in SPOM, the first term of first year?
Enough is enough! Loved CMBM, but its time to move on. Bring on CVM!Yes, that's correct. I really like the structure of the curriculum. I'm soooooooooooo glad we're done with anatomy I enjoyed it while we were doing it, but enough is enough!
I've been complete for two months and no word from PCOM. stats above average. IS. why is the wait time sooo looong? is anyone in a similar situation?
I also have the same problems..i can log into nuclues and not my email and there is no my account button. I called the help desk and they said they are having problems with that right now but should be fixed soon. They also said they might be sending an email with different passwords or something. Either way its not you, it's a problem with thier system.
i havent had issues logging in since they sent me the 6 digit password but i did go to change it and did not have a "my account" link to click either. the password worked for both my email and nucleus. maybe it is case sensitive?
.....there is a nice "Class of 2014" post under the medical student forums. Just saying.......cause people have been posting over there about the binders and website, etc. Call Me X.......have you decided? Or are you just keeping your options open? I know you were debating for awhile......
still waiting...

Hey guys
What are my chances of getting into PCOM?
MCAT: 21P (biology 8, physics 6, English 7)
GPA: 3.3 I'm in my last semester. Biochemestry major and a minor in math
EC: volunteered at HUP for 2 summers and worked as an EMT for 2 years at JEffstat
I applied in December and they just recieved my MCAT scores on January 13, 2010. I was also wondering if PCOM sends a email stating that they are rejecting you.
Thanks!
Im trying to get my head around that too....I keep reading MCAT around 26-27 and gpa 3.3-3.5? Someone can correct me cuz I might be thinking MCU-COM or a different school

Natasha,
What school did you go/ do you go to now? Just wondering if all our CDN schools are recognized. I go to UBC personally and hope they know it. Also did you apply to GA-PCOM?

I got you beat.
App complete email in September. Emailed in maybe late October early November asking for an update. Told to be patient. Received my login and pin in January. Still no word and not expecting to hear anything either. I've already decided on another school but I refuse to withdraw my app on principle, I sent my secondary fee and I want an official decision .
