Congrats future doc! Crazy awesome timeline!II- September 17th
Interview- September 20th
Accepted- 09/26/19
Feels surreal
Hey guys. So I'm getting ready to complete my secondary and I have a question. Is DO letter required or just preferred?? What are the chances of moving ahead if my physician letter is from an MD??
Did you get accepted elsewhere?Withdrew my interview from here, hoping it goes to one of you nice folk!
Did you get accepted elsewhere?
What have you heard?Nope! Hearing testimonies from Kentucky residents who have already been accepted to the school made me reconsider using my time/resources to come interview at KYCOM.
What have you heard?
That’s a bold move, Cotton.Wack grading system, partial mandatory attendance, that whole shindig. I interviewed at LECOM, so I shouldn't complain but after some minutes (actually seconds) of contemplation I decided against interviewing here.

But nonetheless I wish you luck with the rest of your cycle!
Stoked to get an II, but will be withdrawing since I got into somewhere closer to home. Hope it goes to one of you!

Do you mind sharing your stats and/or complete data?
Awesome, congrats doc. Any advice for the interview? Not really worried about interviewing, just going to be honest & myself. Anything that may have caught you off guard ?Just got the call! Interviewed 10/4. Feels great!!!
Thank you!Awesome, congrats doc. Any advice for the interview? Not really worried about interviewing, just going to be honest & myself. Anything that may have caught you off guard ?
WellThank you!
Chill interview. Very relaxed, conversational, mostly about you and expanding on your app. No choking questions at all. Only advice is be yourself and know that post II acceptance is high. They just want to make sure you’re normal.
Were you accepted elsewhere??II tonight, turned it down. Hopefully it goes to one of you!
YesWere you accepted elsewhere??
Nice! congratulations!! Do you mind if I ask where?
I filed for FAFSA about a week ago, but haven't heard anything from the school. Just tried to email the [email protected] email and got a bounce back. I know they gave us the contact info for one of the financial aid people at the interview, I just have to find it so I can email.Has anyone submitted their direct deposit or filed for fafsa yet?
May I ask how low is low gpa? I think I'm in a similarish boat as you, though I received an email from them earlier this cycle about my gpa being too low.. I gave them a call and I was told they might lower the screen later in the cycle, so I have my fingers crossed.First II of the cycle from this school today! I am an OOS post bacc student with low gpa, good MCAT, lots of ECs. I was marked complete on 10/10. Booking a flight now. Good luck to everyone else applying!
My Baccalaureate Science gpa was 3.12. The year after I graduated I did a 26 credit DIY post bacc. I took only science classes. Got a 4.0 and manage to get my total sGPA to 3.27. My overall is 3.4 now but before my PB it was 3.3.May I ask how low is low gpa?

I believe it is 498 for now.Does anyone know what the screen is here for GPA and MCAT? I’ve seen both 3.2 and 3.25 sGPA, and I’ve seen 498 MCAT? Anyone heard? Thanks in advance!

First off, congrats on surviving 2 years of medical school! I recently got an interview invite and I am trying to figure out the logistics of getting to Upike and back. I currently reside in PA, but my family is from (northern)VA. What is your advice on transportation and staying arrangments?I am a current student about to start my 3rd year rotations so if you have any questions feel free to ask here on the forum or DM me
Very similar situation and was surprised at the quick turnaround after the secondary submission. The soonest interview date available was 1/10First II of the cycle from this school today!

I'm unsure how the process is since I decided to apply so late. I truly wasn't anticipating to hear back until later. I don't want to say it's a silent R though, I feel like there can be so much variability between applicants- I'm sorry I can't be much help :/ I'd maybe recommend seeing other posts to gauge if they typically do silent R's or not. Hoping for the best for you!I was marked complete in September and have gotten no email yet. Neither good nor bad. Is that a silent R or do y’all think they genuinely haven’t gotten to my application yet?
The hardest part about not living in KY is the travel Lol. My recommendation is to fly into the Lexington airport and rent a car. The drive is about 2.5 hrs from there but I believe it is the closest airport to us. It may be wise to see if anyone else interviewing that day form this group may want to do something similar and you can split the cost of the rental. The other option is to just drive the whole way but I know thats a long drive. Wish we had a closer airport!First off, congrats on surviving 2 years of medical school!

Additionally, there are a few hotels to choose from. The Hilton and Hampton offer free parking and are literally across the street from the school.First off, congrats on surviving 2 years of medical school!

The don’t do silent rejections. I would call admissions to see if there is a hold up. Also check your junk/spamI was marked complete in September and have gotten no email yet. Neither good nor bad. Is that a silent R or do y’all think they genuinely haven’t gotten to my application yet?
