Not sure about post-II acceptance rate, but the waitlist is pretty common after January.

What do you mean by "the waitlist is pretty common after January"?

 

[winnerwinnerchickendinner]

What do you mean by "the waitlist is pretty common after January"?

Sorry if I wasn't clear. It is pretty common to be placed on the waitlist after interviewing in January.

I'm interviewing in January :/

What's their waitlist movement like?

Anyone just having radio silence from this, and many other schools? I am beginning to worry.😟

 

[DOctorCAL1]

yup

 

[omogedoctor]

yup

Yes. I've heard nothing from LMU, NYIT, UPKCOM, PCOM, and LECOM since I submitted my secondaries, and never even heard back from UIWCOM after my primary.

 

[ad1212]

Yes. I've heard nothing from LMU, NYIT, UPKCOM, PCOM, and LECOM since I submitted my secondaries, and never even heard back from UIWCOM after my primary.

LECOM was the only one I heard back from, but I applied to SO many that its very disheartening to check email constantly and not see anything.

Do you think now would be a good time for you to submit a letter of intent?

 

[TiramisuLover99]

I was complete mid-end of August everywhere, and have only heard back from 5 out of 26 schools I applied to. Should I start to worry?

 

[DOctorCAL1]

Do you think now would be a good time for you to submit a letter of intent?

letter of intent is after interview and usually towards the end of the cycle. letter of interest is something you can send before interview. not sure if lmu-dcom likes those though

 

[omogedoctor]

I was complete mid-end of August everywhere, and have only heard back from 5 out of 26 schools I applied to. Should I start to worry?

Nope, seems like the norm.

 

[beefeater]

I interviewed 10/21 so I’m patiently and anxiously waiting lol

Me too! Keeping my fingers crossed that we'll hear back this week!

 

["Stats?ok_but_Stats_tho?"]

how do the group interviews work? Do different groups go at different times and if so what do you do in the meantime?

 

[beefeater]

Yes you will receive an email with your group number and usually there will be 3 groups. While waiting for interviews you can ask the students or admissions questions or take a break

 

[GetmeacceptedAnon]

so if there are 3 applicants interviewing with you, who are in the different groups? different interviewers ?

where u apply?

 

[nineknives]

Hi everyone, how long after submitting the Secondary does it take to receive a file complete email usually?

 

[lauryng21]

Hi everyone, how long after submitting the Secondary does it take to receive a file complete email usually?

Hello! It took about two weeks to receive a file complete email after submitting my secondary.

 

[TiramisuLover99]

Hi everyone, how long after submitting the Secondary does it take to receive a file complete email usually?

I sent secondary 8/15, got complete email 8/16 and have heard absolutely nothing ever since lol

 

[DOctorCAL1]

I sent secondary 8/15, got complete email 8/16 and have heard absolutely nothing ever since lol

+1. seems weird since they do take low stats and i fit their mission well.
i am also a reapplicant and last year they were silent all cycle and rejected me in May

Hey thanks for the info. And don't be discouraged, from what I saw from last year's thread, there were people that applied in Aug/Sept and didn't hear back for a couple of months

 

[omogedoctor]

Wow. Same here, except this is my first time applying to this school. I actually interviewed at a MD school in the same state that has higher stat averages. Not sure what they're looking for here.

 

[FarmerMed14]

That’s semi-encouraging. I was marked complete 9/16. I really like the school and my wife loves the area north of Knoxville

I can't seem to find it now - I'm so sorry! I don't know exactly where I got that number from and it's not in my history. If I find it, I'll let you know! But it was 79.50% for sure for LMU-DCOM in Aug. 2018! 🙂

I think it’s definitely going to be different this cycle!! Seemed like way more people are interviewing when I interviewed.

I remember you from last year. I wish you good luck this year!!

 

[GetmeacceptedAnon]

how do yall feel that Lincoln gives out letter grades instead of all pass/fail?

 

[drthedude]

how do yall feel that Lincoln gives out letter grades instead of all pass/fail?

most DO schools do, is what it is

 

[DionnaK]

Their reasoning actually makes me feel better along with their COMLEX pass rates.

I recognize you. I’m formerly chicken taco.
