Does anyone know if LMU provides stethoscopes/doctor kits or is that up to us to get?
I think they send everyone a secondary.what r the chances of receiving an interview if we got a secondary?
I've been complete since like early September and still no ii or rejection. I hope things start looking up for us.Marked complete after two months had to get new LOR hope it’s not too late here
nope I’m gonna email themFor anyone who received the “we wanted to let you know your file is still under review…” email on 11/2, have you heard anything since? It’s been complete radio silence. Not sure if I’m alone on this or not :/
I have had silence, but I did see some ppl who got an ii after getting this email. Also, we are just coming out of the holidays and according to last years forum, they don’t start sending out emails again until like Jan 13th.For anyone who received the “we wanted to let you know your file is still under review…” email on 11/2, have you heard anything since? It’s been complete radio silence. Not sure if I’m alone on this or not :/
Lemme know what they say pls.nope I’m gonna email them

email only for meFor those of you who have received an interview, did your LMU portal indicate that as well or did you just get an email
There are statistics but I’m unsure if we’re allowed to share. The school doesn’t focus on USMLE because we’re a DO school. Their primary focus is getting their students to pass LEVEL 1. They provide Uworld, TrueLearn, Pixorize, and Lecturio as resources. They provide 2 assessments before being allowed to take LEVEL 1. Eligibility to take LEVEL 1 will depend on your GPA and assessment score.Are there any statistics about this school and taking STEP 1 or USMILE? I only see the COMLEX pass rates.. Can any current students talk about studying for it and how LMU DCOM handles the USMILE?

Thank you for this thorough explanation! I wouldn't really expect them to prep students for USMLE. I'd assume that's something students need to pursue on their own.There are statistics but I’m unsure if we’re allowed to share. The school doesn’t focus on USMLE because we’re a DO school.

In an attempt to improve pass rate, I do believe fall classes will transition to being mandatory in person. No official announcement has been made. Please keep in mind that passing board exams is really dependent on the individual. Honestly the resources to pass board exams are available via 3rd party so the school’s lectures are irrelevant in my opinion.
I’m currently studying for Level 1 and wish I didn’t have my current classes to distract me. Classes end around the end of April so that’s when dedicated study time begins. Rotations begin mid July so you’ll have to have taken Level 1 before then. In case you fail then you’ll retake it around December by using up a research elective during 3rd year.

That's kind of crazy that they've been running tours all winter claiming lectures are recorded and streamed, and most are not mandatory, only to change that at the last minute. Prospective/accepted students are under a specific impression of how the school handles lectures and that may be a contributing factor in our decisions on which school to attend. Personally, I don't mind mandatory lectures, but I have young children who need to be dropped off at school in the morning. I'm not sure how this will affect my punctuality for the first morning lectures. I have narrowed down my multiple acceptances based on schools with less mandatory morning lectures for this exact reason, and landed on DCOM. And of course I've already withdrawn my seats at other schools. Not really impressed at the moment..
Silence for me, but according to last years forum, they resume with ii in late Jan.Has anyone got any new ii’s since January started?
Heard! You're right. It's come from several current students at this point, but the only way to get a for-sure answer is from the horse's mouth. Just kind of bummed I withdrew multiple other seats.. Thanks for the reality check though.It’s their “personal belief” that DCOM will go to mandatory lectures. They also mentioned that the school has not made any statements about this. I wouldn’t get too dissuaded over someone’s opinion on an anonymous forum. If this is something you are worried about you should call the school and speak to them directly.

My interview is coming up next week, do you guys know if most people in the interviews get waitlisted at this point? I have a 3.8 gpa and a 500 mcat but I guess if I'm getting interviewed they don't care about that anymore.
I just got an II and I am trying to choose a day. Can anyone who has interviewed tell me how long the interview day is?
When I submitted my secondary I placed a preference for the Knoxville campus. Now that I got an II, am I under consideration for Knoxville only, or both campuses? Thank you in advance!
When did you submit secondary?II just now!

I think they send everyone a secondary.
