Do you think it's okay to go ahead and submit without a DPM evaluation listed in AACPMAS?
What Justici said.Do you think it's okay to go ahead and submit without a DPM evaluation listed in AACPMAS? Im applying to DMU and Western. I shadowed a DPM for 8 hours but stopped because I got a job working in a pod office with 4 DPMs but since I'm in training all over I am not sure when it's appropriate to ask for a letter. I start my clinical float training sometime in mid Sept. This will be my 3rd week. Just learning the basics right now. I may wait until late Sept, early Oct to ask? Everything is ready to submit except that and my transcript that still hasn't come in. I just don't want to wait too long. What do yall think?
Just got an interview invite for them!Has anyone heard anything from Western yet? Just curious

I signed up for the 25th.What day did you sign up for? 11,18, or 25?
My wife and I are currently torn between DMU and Temple. We love the Philadelphia area and the clinic there. But we have had friends that attended DMU and loved it, plus the cost of living there is pretty low.

Does anyone know if rescheduling is bad? Would that be brought up during interviews or put me in a disadvantage?
No.I signed up for the 25th.

Sorry my wife and I have been traveling out of the country so I haven't checked SDN very much recently.Yo, I don't know if you can tag people on SDN, and if you can... I don't know how. I just haven't heard from you [Keatbaby] for a minute. Where are you at as far as interviews go? I think you had said you had one from Temple? Anywhere else? Where all did you apply?
Hope this information helps you. I did some investigation today calling around and finally reached the people at AACMPAS that can help you solve that problem. I've been waiting for 3 weeks on one of my transcripts to post and my MCAT was just not turning from "unofficial" to "official."
AACPMAS was super helpful and directed me to the transcript team that handles transcripts/MCAT scores and can answer anything about your application. Their number is: 617-612-2900. They are wonderful and super nice!! They should be able to tell you if something has been received on their end from your undergrad/grad programs. They can also see if you have gone to AAMC to request your MCAT scores to be sent to them via your AAMC ID. Make sure to have your CAS ID ready to give them before calling.
My MCAT and Transcripts had been put on hold for some reason and the person on the other side didn't understand why either. BUT!! She changed a few things and my MCAT is now posted and she said that my transcript would show up by Friday (or sooner!).

I have one scheduled interview (TEMPLE) and I have received invites from DMU and AZPOD so far. The only other school that I applied to is Scholls, and I have only gotten an email saying that they have received my application from them.
Has anyone received an invite from Scholls yet?

Have you taken practice tests? How are the scores going?Hi my regular GPA is 3.55 and sGPA is 3.4 I haven’t taken the MCAT yet (Sept 19) but I did the podiatry internship at Temple and have worked at a PT clinic and have been working at a podiatry office as an MA. Scared/worried to take the MCAT. I’m going to be a TA and doing research this fall. What are my chances?
Your GPAs are fine.Hi my regular GPA is 3.55 and sGPA is 3.4 I haven’t taken the MCAT yet (Sept 19) but I did the podiatry internship at Temple and have worked at a PT clinic and have been working at a podiatry office as an MA.

You're fine.Hi all, this is my first time posting in this thread! My sGPA is 3.2, cGPA is 3.4. I have a good amount of EC and LOR's. I haven't taken the MCAT yet (in January), however was told to submit my app and send the MCAT scores later to begin processing of my app. I submit my app to all 9 schools. What are my chances?
Thanks! I was afraid that having a "pending" MCAT score might push my chances back. I hope thats not the case. CSPM said they conduct conditional interviews sometimes without an MCAT score, not sure if any other school does that. If I get my score in Feb, would I still be okay in regards to the rolling admission?You're fine.
Score above 496 you'll get invites.

Everything in the SDN interview section is more than adequate.Hello team!
I know I mentioned I was only going to apply to New York (spring term 2019) and Midwestern (Fall term 2019) but my friends encouraged me to apply *early* for a couple more, so I applied to Barry and Kent State. I got invitations to both (Barry and Kent State) this past week and was wondering how the interview questions for each school went? What should I do to best prepare, besides SDN? Do they ask about current politics?
Thank you for your time!
DMU gave me a few different days to choose from, any Friday in September. BUT they did not have any dates in Oct listed yet.I wish I had the money to travel out of the country with my wife. I got an invite from AZPOD, but wasn't able to attend the current dates they have up, so I will wait for some later dates. Do you have a date with DMU yet? ... Or does anyone have a date set with DMU? Just wondering how far out they are going. They just got my MCAT scores, so I am expecting an invite some time this week.
I have not heard from Scholl yet, at least as far as an invite. They keep sending me vague generic emails like, we have your stuff and will let you know when we start letting people know. Anyone else any different from this?
Just submitted to DMU, NY, KSU, Temple (gotta write diversity essay for Scholl still). All transcripts and LoRs are submitted. However, I submitted my MCAT through AAMC portal like 2 days ago bc I didn't realize we had to send it through there as well I thought the AAMC ID would allow AACPMAS to verify. Does anyone know how long that takes for the MCAT to be verified? hope they don't hold it against me.
I'm wondering anyone's thoughts on DMU and Kent.
Just got an ii from Scholl. That makes 4 ii's for me (AZPOD, WesternU, Samuel Merritt, and Scholl).
I'm wondering anyone's thoughts on DMU and Kent. I've heard a couple people here have been offered ii's there, but I have only received the initial email saying they were going over applications. I had my MCAT scores verified later than I had expected and I am thinking that may have something to do with it, but my nerves are getting the best of me. Is there a time when I contact the school's and ask how the application review is going? I figured that I haven't gotten a "no" yet, so maybe they have just not gotten to my application yet. Thoughts?
I had friends last cycle that submitted in March and were able to get interviews to 6 or7 schools. Also had a friend with a conditional acceptance and scholarship without having taken the MCAT yet. So, you should be fine. I would assume you would hear back from most of the schools before November at the latest, but most likely sooner. Don't quote me on this though, I am not on any of the admissions committees.
I don't know. He didn't tell me. He was very reserved about his stats and school applications. Which I respected and didn't try to push it. I know he eventually ended up at AZPOD, whether that was the school that had conditionally accepted him or not, I don't know.Do you know which school did the conditional acceptance?
I received my first acceptance yesterday! I was very impressed with Barry and their clinic. It would be hard to turn them down.
Hi! how did your interview go? We're they harsh with questions? I have an ii Sep 24 and a bit nervous. Thank youI received my first acceptance yesterday! I was very impressed with Barry and their clinic. It would be hard to turn them down.

While I am very happy for you it makes me sad. I didn't apply to Barry, my wife was not keen on the school. I have grown accustomed to your expert opinions and attitude toward the profession. It would have been enjoyable to have had classes with you. However, I wish you luck as you continue on your path of becoming a physician!Congratulations! I’ll see you there then, most likely!

@justici did you get accepted to Barry?
Congrats! Just wondering- in the acceptance letter/email, did they let you know how long you have to inform them whether you'll attend or not? And if so, what was it? 2 weeks? A month?I received my first acceptance yesterday! I was very impressed with Barry and their clinic. It would be hard to turn them down.

Hi all,
I plan on scheduling my interview for Western and Barry soon. For those of you who have interviewed at either school, how long did it take you to hear back regarding the admissions decision? Thank you!
Thanks! Was this for Barry or both?Two days for me
