+1, dumb question, but does "group" mean its with other students interviewing also or only you and current student/faculty

ChooseDO needs to update its info to match MSAR so these things are easily known

Even MSAR doesn't list the post-interview acceptance rate, only the number of interviews and the number of matriculants.
You can assume the number of admission offers will be somewhat larger than number of matriculants, as not everyone accepts their offer/or may get more than one offer.
 
what i've noticed about post-II interview is this: interviews come out in 'waves'. Typically, each school will send anywhere from 3-4 waves throughout the cycle, given how long it takes them to fill the seats. With that, those in the first couple of waves were way more likely to get an A because the school needs to fill seats. Think about it, the faster they can fill seats...the faster they can be done interviewing, etc. People in the later waves (oct, nov, dec) still got some A's but a lot more waitlists. Again, this is my interpretation, but if you get an II in the first couple of waves the likelihood to get the A is looking pretty good!! (Research based on past SDN threads LOL)

Thanks for easing my mind lol <3
 
From what I have seen, AFter an interview, you can get. "A" or "WL" or "R." Some schools will only give a certain number of "A"s for each week of interviews so that they don't exhaust spots for applicants interviewing later.
 
anyone else have this problem of not being marked as complete after 1 month of making a DMU account? all of my recs are in AACOMAS and in my committee packet so idk why the letters are marked as not received...

Yep, and it said it was received and accepted on 5/14 🙁
I did email the admissions committee but wondered if anyone else had this problem and if I should be worried 🤣
 
When they ask about "exposure to osteopathic medicine" is it appropriate if I refer to the physician I'm referencing as a "DO physician" or is "physician with a DO" better?
 
I finished my kira like a week ago and still havent recieved a group interview email
