I don’t think anyone has been accepted yet but I received an interview and didn’t complete a video.
Same lol 🤞🏽
lol i think if we do, it will be around 3-4pm (Texas time!) Do you think we will? I think our luck we will get it Thursday! lol
Also did not make a video and received an interview invite. Personally, I don't believe it will make or break your app! Many have received II (including myself) who did not submit a video, while many who did also received II. I would submit one if you believe it would help show the adcom a side of you that isn't expressed in your app. But I wouldn't submit a video just to say you submitted one if that makes sense.
The thing about making the video is that if it's good, it will help your app. If it's bad (it's bad if the adcoms looking at it don't like it) then it could detract attention away from the rest of your app, which could be problematic. i don't know if doing a bad video can DIRECTLY hurt you.
I interviewed a cycle or 2 or 3 cycles ago (lols- I'm old) back without making a video, got accepted and also a current student
How did you feel you did on the interview?
Hahaha if it makes you feel better I am closer to being 30 years old than I am 20 sooo I feel that 😂😂I interviewed a cycle or 2 or 3 cycles ago (lols- I'm old) back without making a video, got accepted and also a current student
Questions are always welcome by DM or on here.
Congrats!!!! Hopefully we will be there together
BCOM said there would be an accepted students facebook group. I'd refer to your acceptance email.ACCEPTED!!!!!! Top school of mine, interviewed 9/9
Thank you!
Also, would you like to inform our fellow applicants why this school is one of your top choices? I'm sure lots of us would benefit! no pressure if you're not downACCEPTED!!!!!! Top school of mine, interviewed 9/9
So given your A today, I think we can conclude that nobody has been rejected post-II as of today.
hey! absolutely i will share! I will make it brief and concise and hopefully easy to understand. For starters, the community they have created there is unlike any other school. the staff is incredible about being there for the students. 100% match rate. helpful with financial aid. just kind people I guess, good people. the location is beautiful. their mission. There's a lot of great things about this school, this is just a start! I was floored during my interview day! I dont know much since this is my first time applying but I can help you with anything else
Congratulations!!!ACCEPTED!!!!!! Top school of mine, interviewed 9/9
510 mcat 3.9 GPA, oos, video!
With stats like these, are you considering going MD?
First off, Congrats! I have an upcoming interview with them as well. BCOM is also my top choice, do you have any words of advice for a first-time interviewee?Thanks!ACCEPTED!!!!!! Top school of mine, interviewed 9/9
No, I will be sticking with DO
Thank you very much! BCOM was my 2nd or 3rd interview, and definitely the most relaxed one. You will be fine if you practice just general medical school interview questions! Just be yourself honestly
Awesome, thank you. Could you tell if the interview was open or closed file?
Congrats! Stats?
Would you please clarify: Did you hear this AFTER your 30 minute interview or NEAR THE END of your interview?
It was just about at the end of the 30 min interview..
To be as direct as possible:
Sorta--if it is within something like 75 miles from ABQ (such as Santa Fe or Belem), then you commute. Places like Espanola or Las Vegas, NM which are hours away are called spokes and there is housing provided for you in those locations. For the Albuquerque hub specifically, everyone does at least 1 spoke. Some have more, but everyone does at least 1. Not every regional academic center (as the hubs are now apparently being called) have spokes. I personally like that Albuquerque has them so you get a mix of both rural and urban medicine and not just all of one or the other. There are RAC's that are completely rural, such as Four Corners and Eastern NM, so if you're interested in rural medicine specifically, then those are good places to try and go for rotations. hope this helps!
