Normally what percentage of the interviewees are granted admissionÉ
Could someone list all the cities that are posibilities for 3rd and 4th year rotations? I can't seem to find this information anywhere...
can anyone post the match list for AZCOM or provide the link...I cant seem to find any on their website.
Thanks!

Just wondering if anyone else is interviewing at AZCOM on 10/12..I was thinking of driving in from LA (it seems way cheaper than a flight and that way dont need to worry about taxis and shuttles and stuff) and was wondering if anyone wanted to come along and share the ride PM me!
i am interviewing on 10/12 as well...but heading straight from toronto, so will be flying in.. flying into Ontario, from Ontario lol.

Definitely the Slap Chop.
anyone know what the interview format will be like? group interview or individual interview
It's not a group interview, you won't be interviewing with fellow applicants. You will be interviewed by a panel of 3 people. For me it was a professor, a community physician and a 4th year student. The interview goes by really quick - I think mine was about 45 minutes.
Interview on November 28th.
Does CCOM have a higher admission standard than AZCOM? AZCOM granted me an interview two or three days after I submitted my secondary. It's close to two months since I was complete for CCOM but still haven't heard any thing yet.
can any current student comment or pm me on the rotations for AZCOM...i did a search on SDN and found some unconstructive comments...
I'm at the airport waiting for my (delayed) flight to leave for Phoenix. If anyone wants to meet up tomorrow/this weekend after tomorrow's interview, send me a PM.
Is anyone staying at the Drury tonight? I didn't see any students at the hotel dinner!
1. mostly traditionalI was hoping a current AZCOM student or graduate could answer a few questions about the school for me:
1. Is there curriculum completely traditional or is there anything unique about it (ie: systems-based, PBL, etc). How is the testing schedule?
2. Any early clinical exposure 1st and 2nd year to better prepare you for 3rd and 4th year rotations?
3. How is the quality of clinical rotation sites and can you choose to do them in L.A.?
4. Anything particularly unique about the school? What are some reasons to go here over others?
Thank you!
Great interview experience today. Let me know if you have questions.
Haha yeah I was asking those questions because I was trying to think of unique responses to "Why AZCOM?" Thanks for the response!1. mostly traditional
2.minimal exposure but yes
3.currently LA is an option can't say for sure if it will be in 2 years, but very likely, quality varies, but mostly good
4.pass scores, faculty interaction, not that familiar with other schools so hard to answer
these great q's for interview day too
I was curious as to what questions they asked you. It was a panel interview, right?Great interview experience today. Let me know if you have questions.

When do y'all find out if you are accepted?
2. Any early clinical exposure 1st and 2nd year to better prepare you for 3rd and 4th year rotations?
As much as you want to have. You can volunteer at clinics/shelters from the start, you get introduced to a number of things during first year's clinical course (venipuncture, injections, H&Ps, sports physicals on local high school students, simulated patient encounters, etc). Even more so during MS2.
I'm guessing this volunteering at the clinic/shelter is not incorporated into the curriculum. Would you mind telling us what these organizations are called?
Also, is the preceptorship part of the 88 weeks of clinical rotations in 3rd and 4th year?
Thanks in advance
Hey Fox...can you go over the day? Just let us know what went on and what was impressive
