Does anyone know if LECOM-Bradenton has a pass/fail system their first semester/year?

Any idea as to where I could find info on which DO schools are pass/fail in the beginning?

No, you can make an A, B, C or F. You must pass every class, but you can be given a chance to remediate in the summer. If your score is between 65 and 70, you may be given the option to re-test at the end of the year. In OMM, though, the practical portion is pass/fail. If you fail it, you are given a chance to re-take it right away, after some one-on-one with the course director. In some classes, like Clinical Exam, you must pass every test. You can't make an A on the first one and an F on the second. You are, however, given the option to retest at the end of the semester, but you must make an 80 to pass the course for the re-test.

So, are you saying that this IS possible in the other classes, i.e, so long as I have a 70% average, I pass?
