    MD & DO Looking for constructive criticism before my first cycle

    Hey sdn, So I know everyone is freaking about about the grade replacement thing (and as someone who replaced two Cs with two As I feel your pain), but I'm really looking for some advice and honest appraisals of my applicant profile if you don't mind. Assuming that grade replacement is out...

    Slightly freaking out...

    So I took the MCAT in June 2015 and got a 496 and still applied to schools anyway (I'm only interested in DO). I only had 1 interview, at PCOM, but was rejected after. I decided to take a year off and study again and retake the MCAT. I'm scheduled to take it this January 28th, and I've been...

    DMU vs PCOM-GA

    Tough decision but a good one to have honestly. Recently got into both. Both seemed like great schools from what I gathered from the interviews and tours. I am mainly concerned with which school will provide me with the most resources to get a quality education (high STEP and COMLEX 1) and the...

    Does PCOM have a student run clinic?

    I was look through its website and I didn't really see any information about one. I just wanted a confirmation from PCOM students or anyone else who knows. Thank you!

    Health Insurance in PA/Philadelphia

    PCOM does not offer health insurance and I will no longer be eligible for coverage on my parent's plan. I am funding 100% of my tuition and living expenses through loans and will have $0 income. When I try to sign up for healthcare.gov's obamacare I am told I am ineligible due to $0 income and...

    MS: TouroCOM-Middletown vs. PCOM

    Hi guys! I have been planning on attending TouroCOM Middletown's 1-year Master's program next year, which has a guaranteed acceptance into their DO program if you obtain a 3.5 GPA and pass the comprehensive exam. Apparently ~50% of the MS students reach this goal (according to a professor...

    Gannon University and PCOM Accelerated Program

    Hello! I was accepted into Gannon University and PCOM's (3+4) year medical program. I was just wondering if there was anyone who went through the program and had any insight on what the program is like and whether or not it is worth it. Thanks, all comments are greatly appreciated!

    The Switch to NRMP

    As we progress to 2020, all the osteopathic programs that become pre-accredited and finally accredited will be trickling over to the NRMP from the NMS. I wanted to see if there is a list of the programs that have switched over already, and if there isn't we should start one right here. As far...

    ACOM vs. PCOM-GA

    Hello, I've recently been accepted into both PCOM-GA and ACOM, and I'm having a bit of a hard time deciding. I feel like overall PCOM is a better school and definitely more established, but I fell in love with ACOM when I interviewed there. I liked ACOM a lot, but it still hasn't graduated its...
