Please feel free to tag a pre-medical moderator when the secondary prompt is posted.

Good luck to everyone applying!

Secondary 6/14
1. Why do you believe AZCOM would provide you with the type of osteopathic medical education you are seeking?
2. Why should AZCOM accept you into this year's class?
And a resume to top it off

Called the school and was told that AACOMAS is sending applications slower than last year. Recruitment coordinator told me to wait til the end of the week and give them a call back if you still haven't heard from them!

I haven't received secondaries to any of the 10 schools I applied. I guess all of them are slower this time around?

Ah just realized their page says they only accept MCAT's "within three years of matriculation". Guess my June 2017 score is invalid then
 
PSA, there's a new MSAR-akin tool for DO schools now that's free to use. Figured I should share! Good luck everyone this cycle!

Is it bad that I'm not submitting as soon as I received it? I need a few days to write it lol.

Nope not at all. 2 weeks is the rule of thumb. I pre wrote mine that’s why.

So since both campuses are asking the same questions (obviously the first question's essay will be different), can the second essay for the school's be the same? I feel like the campus being different wouldn't change my answer to that second question. Thanks!!

Only thing I changed on the second essay was CCOM -> AZCOM lol

Should I write my mcat score on my CV?

It is already in your file and it is something they would be looking for either way, up to your discretion.

As someone who helps writes CV/Resumes I would recommend to use it if you need to fill up space, but considering you opted for CV instead of a (generally 1 page) resume you probably have enough EC's.

I'm sure it'll be great with which ever you choose! Thats just my 2cents :)

The CV is for the interview if they give you one. The interviewers dont have access to your file so put anything you want on the CV that you would want the interviewers to see
 
Looking at last years thread, seems like IIs should be rolling out soon.

I'd imagine "Admissions" -> "Interview Scheduling".
 
This is likely due to the fact that I didn't get one, lol.
