So you submitted your secondary on 6/23, when did you receive your "under Review" email and how did you get informed about interview (like text, email, portal change)?

Can you post some tips on the interview day? What kinds of questions will we be asked? This will be the first school I'll interview at

As far as the group part goes-- be assertive but not aggressive. Don't interrupt. Don't dominate the conversation. Medicine is a team sport and so is med school, especially if you end up in PBL. Show you "play well with others."

Questions-- it's been years since I interviewed so I only remember the obvious: why medicine, why DO, why LECOM, (if at Seton Hill) why Seton Hill/PBL is a good fit.

In review email the next day. I got the interview notification through email, then went on the portal to choose my dates.

If we preferred the Seton Hill campus, would that affect when we would potentially get an interview or do they have the same adcom?
 
For those that have interview invites, do you all have your letters into AACOMAS?
 
Is anyone else still not considered complete for the Bradenton campus after submitting their application?

For Erie, I have the "Your application is under review" message in the online portal. Not for Bradenton, though.

I have that I'm under review for Erie. For Bradenton, I have that my secondary is received and review process will begin soon.

Haven't gotten a secondary from any LECOM campus yet, but I only submitted my primary about a week ago.
 
Secondary received for Erie/Seton Hill!

P.S why does Erie have such a bad reputation? I did not know until I started searching around and this kinda scared me a bit.

Never heard of the bad reputation. Would you mind sharing details?
 
Did you all submit two secondaries - one for Erie and the other for SH? I can't tell if I'm supposed to submit both or just one since they asked for my preference.

I just did one, and I think that's what you're supposed to do, hence the question about preferences.

Then, I did another one for Bradenton.

Yup. You're supposed to choose both campuses as your campus choice preference.

Got it! I keep getting Bradenton and SH mixed up. So, it's one application for Erie and SH, and then another one for Bradenton.
 
Anyone get a second email from Erie about them receiving your AACOMAS application and inviting you to complete the secondary?

I got another copy of this email this morning, but I already submitted my secondary on Saturday. The email literally says the same exact thing-- even the username/password to access the secondary is the same. I'm thinking it's a glitch, like maybe they meant to send a "your application is complete" email instead, but I'm not sure. Anyone else?

I got this email too! I think it was just an error probably.
 
Are we done with LECOM's secondary once we fill out the page for our ACT scores? There's no fee or anything?

So I submitted my primary before receiving my MCAT scores and I got the secondary. They asked to submit my ACT scores but I don't want to have to pay for my ACT score to be sent. Should I wait until they get my MCAT score or send my ACT score?

I think it costs 12$ to send your ACT score to one school. When did you take the MCAT? You need to consider whether the time having your secondary submitted (how much earlier it could be) vs. waiting for MCAT is worth the small figure to send your ACT score.

Depends, how long do you have to wait til MCAT scores come out? Add a week to that for AACOMAS to verify them and send them out... is it worth waiting that long and being possibly delayed to the next batch of applicants?

They've shown interest in you, so I'd personally just bite the bullet and pay the money to have the ACT scores scent

I think you only have to send official scores if you get an interview

I got my scores May 20th, and they still haven't gotten it. I have had the secondary for a little while now.

Sorry, meant to say June 20th. My scores were received by AACOMAS 2 days later and all other schools received them except LECOM. Should I still wait?
 
This is a dumb question but do we really have to send in ACT? I entered my score but maybe I should have read the fine print!
