My first acceptance. I loved the place! Interview was awesome and laid back.
He asked me the basic interview questions. . why I want to be a doctor, my strengths, weakness, ect.
I interviewed there last Thursday.. I was nervous at first, but after the first 5 minutes or so, it all went away. The whole day is very low stress! Good luck!So KCOM called me this morning and asked if I would move my Dec. 17 interview to this Friday!!! I accepted and am now officially in freakout mode!
Did this happen to anyone else?
I interviewed last friday. Very laid back! perfect location to learn how to be a doctor....an acceptance from this school would be awesome.
Is attendance mandatory? And do they record lectures?
Some classes are mandatory, or just certain lectures in a class are. Lectures are recorded and posted online almost as soon as the class is over.
has anyone who interviewed last week heard anything yetttt? i'm going crazy!
Does anyone know what the acceptance rate is for interviewees or if a bias even exists for KCOM?
Good luck to all interviewing!

How long did it take after you finished your secondary to hear about an interview invite?
I am in state and was put on the short-call list for an interview 2 days after I submitted my secondary. My interview was that same Friday, but I know this is not the average time, I just got lucky. Good luck!

This is according to US World and News Report...
Basically no bias for In State #'s but maybe an advantage for success.

Congrats, did you call in? what time? They told the Friday group to call Thursday, hope I get in too!
You're not required to have a laptop. I'd say +90% of students do though. Mix of PC and Mac
I am waiting for my packet in the mail but hoping one of you may tell me what kind of deposits I am required to make to hold my seat, is it 1k or 2 k?

Somewhere in this thread I want to say I read that it was better to fly into Columbia if possible because it's a much shorter post-flight drive...Got an invite today. Nothing was available until January. Anybody have advice on which is better...flying into Kansas City or St. Louis and driving in?

I flew into St. Louis and hopped a puddlejumper to kirksville. the airplane ride from kirksville to st. louis and back cost $100 total, which is cheaper and easier than renting a car. I think the airline that services Kirkville is Air Choice One.Got an invite today. Nothing was available until January. Anybody have advice on which is better...flying into Kansas City or St. Louis and driving in?
