Oklahoma OMS

[deleted678432]

Does OU have a notable preparation for potential OMS applicants? I know that it's the applicant not the school, however, it's known that UConn, Colombia, UCLA, etc. have a lot of students continuing onto OMS, so can anybody tell me whether or not OU is similar to this?

It's definitely the applicant, not the school. HOWEVER, you are right in that some schools place a LOT more students into OMFS as opposed to the others. These include UCLA, UCSF, Columbia, UConn, and Harvard. Penn does pretty well too. You greatly increase your chances of getting in because name goes a long way....PLUS no class rank or GPA to worry about at these schools. Harvard,Columbia, and UConn have the added benefit of a medical school curriculum which is probably the most useful advantage in matching OMFS.

I don't think OU has anything notable in regards to preparing potential OMS, so just find a way to stand out I guess.
