i got alternative list about a week after my interview. can anybody ease my mind? what are my chances of being accepted?
Click to expand...
I'd say highly likely based off what others have said in this thread and based off last years SDN thread. As previously mentioned in other posts, alternative list essentially means you are accepted, just waiting for a seat to open up and as soon as one does, you'll get that sweet sweet acceptance email.

Stay strong, you're not out till you get formally rejected!

i don't know about long point but definitely park west, park place, and turtle creek. lots of COM folks there. based on personal experience I would personally vouch for parkwest, the Met, and breckenridge (our class has a ton of folks at Breckenridge), but I haven't had any experience with the other places!

I got mixed signals from Eagle Flatts. First they said that the move in date would be in the middle of August, but a different contact told me they can let me move in earlier if rooms open. I scoured their google reviews and it seems noise is a concern due to probably college kids. Another concern, is if they pair you with a roommate, they might not be a student so living together might get weird. This might be a better option your OMS-2 year when you can make friends with other WCUCOM students and y'all roommate.

Just got the reject via email this morning. I felt my interview went great, so I’m honestly not sure why. I wish I hadn’t gotten my hopes up. Good luck to everyone else!

Dang. You should contact your interviewer to see why you were rejected. Once, when I was interviewing with ARCOM, I said something wrong which got me a post II R. But the interviewer corrected me. I got the same Q at WCUCOM but I now knew how better to say my answer. So if it's because you made a mistake during the interview, learning how not to repeat it will help at other schools this cycle.

Did anyone else get asked if they are comfortable with removing their clothes and wearing a sports bra/shorts in OMM lab during the interview?

yeah this is a pretty standard question for DO programs. through me for a loop last year too because tbh I wasn't as familiar with DO education as I should have been, but for OMM lab and sometimes CPC too, you have to be able to have your top off for spinal stuff or shorts on for lower extremitiy stuff. I will say they are SUPER good about respecting religious requirements however and a lot of folks with different religious requirements will wear a tank top or some other variation to meet their requirements. just make sure you talk to the OMM faculty during the first week and let them know.

Sorry to hear that. I am sure you will get in somewhere. Do you mind sharing your stats? I interviewed this week and am very anxious.

yeah you'd probably be fine... if it's for religious or health or some other reason than personal preference, I'd probably talk to the OPP faculty when classes start so they don't bother you about it, but otherwise just be preprepared to take it off in the pretty unlikely event a professor or scholar asks you too.

Ok. I used to have severe back acne as a kid so I am a little conscious about my back scars lol. I still take meds for it, but its controlled so idk if faculty will be cool with me keeping my shirt on.

honestly i'd wear whatever your comfortable with and worst case scenario you just have to take it off! i will say there is such a variety of bodies and backgrounds in our class that literally no one notices or cares. the first 1-2 labs are a little weird, but you adapt so quickly and it all just becomes so normal. we all have scars in all different kinds of places and you really see it all on people! it's part of the learning process! i totally understand being self-conscious, but definitely don't stress out about it!

Can someone who has been accepted this cycle and is part of the Facebook group/Groupme for the upcoming class tell how many of the total seats have been filled?
