podiatry

Hello NYCPM students I have a studio available for rent starting August. • 2 big bedrooms, kitchen, bathroom (shared) and all utilities included (water, gas, electricity, heat) Looking for 2 students, however depending on how comfortable you are, another student is welcome especially for cheaper...

Hey guys! So I know that AACPMAS opens first W of August, but I was wondering how we could prepare for that before hand? Should we start sending our transcripts and MCAT Scores? I know that the 2017-2018 application is still up, if I get started on that one would all my information transfer to...

1. I just wanted to get a quick idea and list of opinions on WAMC at any DO or MD school in America with the following info. 2. Is it worth doing a one year Masters Program (I was thinking MSPCS at Mercer University) to improve my cGPA and show I can do better in higher level science courses...

Hi all! I know there was previously a thread regarding the pros and cons about Samuel Merritt and Western but I had a different question this time (I'm sorry, this is my first time posting, I'm new to this!) I was wondering how the 3rd and 4th year rotations work for both schools. I am...

Hello Future Doctors! I'll be starting school this fall and was wondering if you could answer the following questions and provide any general tips 1) I know every student is different, but how many hours a day did you study for the 1st 2 years of school? 2) what is your most challenging...

Was really stuck between off and on campus but eventually decided for on-campus bc of convenience and social aspect. Have any of yall lived there, and if so, do you regret it? What're some pros you get from being on-campus vs off-campus?

Hello! First post in the podiatry forum :) I was looking through the AACPMAS course descriptions (I can't post links yet because I'm new) and realized math wasn't under science. Is this a recent change? All the older threads I've seen about course descriptions seemed to say math/statistics was...

Hey guys. first post on the forum lol. I was wondering-i know for other grad schools like MD and Dental they include Research Independent study credits in your science gpa. Does podiatry do the same? My research gets listed as a Medicine 699 Course. these really help boost my science gpa...

hello everyone i hope you all are doing okay. i have a few questions for those who are currently podiatry residents or are practicing podiatrist. 1) What is the future of Podiatry? is the field growing or not growing? is there a demand for podiatrist? is it worth it to pursue podiatry now...

I didn't find any information about CSPM Summer Program in sdn. Has anyone got into this program? What do you think about the summer immersion program? And is it too late to apply for Summer 2018? If there's a post that I missed about this program, could you please send me the link? Thank you!!

Preferably for free or low cost and easily accessible from a personal computer.

Although advisors in my undergraduate told me not to work, while enrolled in school, I ended up relatively fine. Has anybody here done any paid work outside of work study in pod school. Is it even doable?

I got accepted into Barry & Scholl, currently waiting on a response from Temple, and will interview at DMU this week. I was wondering if anyone could give me insight into what you like/dislike about their programs, especially if you are a current student at one of these universities? Good...

I am a pre-medical student with a significant interest in podiatry. I have shadowed various physicians of many differing fields, but found podiatry the most interesting, by-far. Not at all to smear the profession, but I know many of the applicants of podiatric medical school typically do so...

Hey guys! I have a friend who was wondering what the on campus housing situation is at the schools. She was just curious to know if most people live on campus during their first year. She basically applied to almost all of the pod schools (except for one in california and NY) and so if anyone...

I was recently interviewed at a private practice orthopedic group, and to my surprise was asked point-blank, "So how much do want to make?" I was caught quite off guard (though I probably shouldn't have been), and in my moment of fluster, spat out what the previous residents' offers were. So, to...

Hello, I recently got accepted into podiatry school for fall 2018. Although I was initially excited, I am now having doubts if becoming a podiatrist is what I truly want. Honestly I initially wanted to go the MD/DO track, but I had to accept the reality of my situation. I have a 3.3 cgpa and...

. How strict is the requirement in terms of the course being labeled as an English course? For example. if I have taken multiple classes and labs that involve a writing intensive aspect, will those courses count towards that English requirement? Or does that course specifically have to be an...

Are there any podiatry schools that don't require the traditional prerequisites (12 Biology, 8 Chem, 8 Orgo etc..)? Podiatry is a relatively new (but serious) career consideration for me, and as a second year Language and International Health student, I am not on track to finish these...

I had recently been accepted to Scholl College of Podiatric Medicine. Prior to applying to podiatry school I had applied to DO schools, but did not quite cut it. That being said, I did not want to take a year off due to family pressure and decided to jump into podiatry school. I had readily been...

Hi! I'm a current WesternU 2nd year podiatry student. If anyone has a question about anything, feel free to ask me!

Hello future student doctors! I am a first year student at Kent State University College of Podiatric Medicine and am approaching the end of my first semester! I would like to extend this opportunity to anyone who has questions about the field of podiatry in general, and/or KSUCPM to feel free...

Hello all, I was getting ready to apply for FAFSA, however I wasn't sure if I had to send it to all schools I am applying to? (I haven't applied yet, working on my shadowing). Or should I wait until I receive an interview/acceptance? Also, attempting to find answers to the first, there was a...

Hi all, I will be starting some of my DPM shadowing soon and I needed some advice. Assuming the doctor has an open schedule to shadow (meaning at anytime), what would you recommend is a good amount of hours to shadow per visit? and what time during the day you would say is ideal? (my schedule...

Hello possible future podiatry students, I would like to discuss why and how I got into podiatry. Like maybe some of you, I was not sure of what medical profession I wanted to become (optometry, MD, DO, dental, and of course, podiatry). I am going to admit, podiatry at first was my back up...

I know there is not really a BEST pod school. But there has to be one that stands out from the others. I was going to apply to Barry but looking at some posts on here are giving me pause. They wrote about the rude and bad professors, but I'm not sure how reliable they are, or if they are...

Since the application opens in 5 days, why not? Super excited to be applying this year!

so I already have 2 LORs from the science faculty at the CC I attended but I want to get one from one of the professors at my transfer 4 year school. My problem is during those 2 years I couldn't be really involved so that the professor can get to know me. When I tried emailing my zoology and...

Hi I recently got interested into podiatry and I decided to apply for schools. I plan to shadow around late of September and shadow him for 2-3 weeks and ask him for the letter of recommendation. The process of the overall application might take until late of November for completion. Would it...

First, stats: 3.4x C/S GPA. 519 MCAT. Lots of paid healthcare experience. 250+ nonmedical volunteer. 150+ medical volunteer. 1+ year research, no pubs. I applied everywhere early, most of my secondaries complete mid July. I am aware that it's early still, but I haven't received the love from...

Hi I'm 30 years of age, and I am contemplating applying to Podiatry school. I'm engaged and my fiancé and I have discussed a plan to start a family after we marry (which will be next year). So, interim I would take all the pre-requisite classes required, and then apply. My fiancé is an...

Hi Everyone, I am planning on applying to the 2017-2018 cycle. I really would like to have everything ready to go by the end of August/Mid September so that I can a jump start on interviews before things get very hectic. I have had people read over my personal statement including professors...

I'd highly appreciate you guys for taking the time to answer the following: 1) Do I have to have my MCAT score by the time of application? because I'm taking the MCAT on September 9 and the AACPMAS application opens in August 2) I haven't shadowed a DPM yet but by working as an EMT for 2...

I apologize for not posting journals the past few months. I have been very busy with moving, graduation, and starting residency. Journal club overview: - An article will be selected and posted each month. Please PM me an article you are interested in and I will select one. Please keep them as...

I am a current Podiatry resident working with the Goldfarb Foundation. I am messaging you to let you know about an APMLE Step I / Step II prep app the Goldfarb Foundation, the biggest name in podiatry board prep for residents, just released for iOS and Android. The app is by far the most...

Hey Guys, So I’m about to complete my residency program next week on the East Coast with a PMSR certificate. I was unfortunately guaranteed in my first year, by my previous immoral director, that if I obtain all my “RRA” numbers than I could obtain the RRA certificate. Due to my naivete, I...

So I am looking to apply to Podiatry school for next cycle. I have about a 2.5 GPA overall and a 3.2 Science GPA. I know they're not good but I have been busy working in the podiatry field while taking all these classes. I have seven years podiatry assisting experience both clinical and...
