Not sure where to ask this, but are there any Group Me chats for pre-pods? I've been on groups with people taking the MCAT and applying to MD/DO schools, and was wondering if there was something similar for those applying to podiatry this cycle.
What can you do differently on a Groupme that you can't do on here?
Genuinely confused on how that would add value.
In my experience with Group Me, it can be more personal and a quicker way to communicate? I was in a group for people taking the MCAT in June and there was maybe 100-200 people in it. I was also in a group for those applying this cycle. People asked questions about practice problems and gave application advice, etc. I'm not asking to create one, just asking out of curiosity if it already exists.
Our class year in NYCPM has a GroupMe chat that we use to help each other succeed. I recommend joining/creating a GroupMe for your class because it’d be more beneficial since it’d be more tailored to your specific class topics
There isn't one here on SDN but you should make one when starting at a program. For now, you can talk to others (prepods) by sending them a private message and adding more users if you'd like.
Current students and DPMs should check out the APMA Podcast...has info on various topics such as loan repayment to joining a new practice, etc. You have to be an APMA member in order to listen.

I also wanted to post a link to The Journal of Foot and Ankle Surgery. It’s a great way to stay up to date with current research. I am a second year podiatry student at WesternU assisting in a research project, feel free to DM me if you want to learn more about research, WesternU or podiatric medical school in general.
