Hi! No I just had a different offer closer to home 🙂 I think ATSU is a solid school and I’ve talked to some happy campers there. Don’t be nervous, be proud - it’s a great program! Regardless of wherever you go you’ll be a great doc.
everyone declining makes me nervous about me considering coming here
If you want to be a specialist it is generally considered a better idea to prioritize MD schools, DO schools tend to train you more on family medicine and internal medicine and pediatrics. In terms of those specialties, ATSU is an excellent school. Other people prioritize brain surgery or whatever, so they would not be wise to attend ATSU.I feel the same way
2 weeks for me
That’s faster than I originally thought but I’m very impatient haha, thanks!
If you email admissions they will connect you with a current student. One of the students met with me over zoom and answered a ton of my questions about the classes and curriculum idk how many are on SDN
I have exactly 500 and got an II last month
Yes, I just got an II last week.
No they are still interviewing through May! Still sending out acceptances so class isn’t full yet
sweet thanks for the prompt response!
I was accepted with score just below 500, had LOTS of other things on my application though as a non-trad.
No it’s more group conflict resolution
shoot your shot imo
Okay! Thanks for the encouragement ya'll.
I am most likely going to withdraw my application and upcoming interview date. Hopefully, it can go to one of you guys!!
Congrats !! 🥳
Thanks 😈
I submitted my secondary to ATSU around this time and had an II from them, albeit my LM was 70 and WARS was 71. Also, when I interviewed with ATSU-SOMA last cycle, I think they were mostly offering waitlist spots rather than acceptances since it's a bit late in the cycle.
just curious did you end up getting an A after your interview?
Oh I got rejected actually, I think what killed my application, besides the poor internet quality I was facing during my Zoom interview, was when my interviewer asked how many medical schools I applied for as the last question of my interview, and I didn't wanna say I applied to 59 schools and was applying to ATSU for some safety school options because I was only II'ed at 3 schools at the time, and waitlisted at all 3 schools. I fumbled at answering that question and I tried to keep the number confidential for privacy reasons. I could tell they didn't like applicants who were applying to a lot of schools and who lacked a strong commitment/interest to ATSU-SOMA and its Osteopathic/community medicine/primary care-focused mission.
thank you for the comprehensive answer and hope you secured the A elsewhere!
Thankfully, I reapplied Early Decision to my state school and got accepted there, my state school was my top choice and cheapest choice too!
Not too sure tbh. I wasn't asked about anything specific within my application during both interviews, so I'm assuming its closed
There are still spots!
Just came on here because same haha
