Anyone here applying for the class of 2007 whos going to the COMP open house on April 6/7? I'm really interested in meeting some of my(hopefully) future class mates?

Hi there (I'm actually an MS-I at COMP),
is this open house you're referring to the OMAC conference? (Osteopathic Medical Awareness Conference) I highly recommend attending that conference if you're anywhere in the area.. to get a sense for what the school looks like, walk around and talk to some students/profs, listen to the student panels, and perhaps gain a little more experience that will help when interviewing at COMP. (One of my interviewers happened to be the doctor who gave the OMM demonstration the day I attended OMAC)

Hope this helps..

Thats what I was talking about, thanks for the advise. Should I dress kind of dressy, nice slacks/shirt/tie?

 

[melancholy]

Yeah, dressing up would be a nice idea although it's not necessary... most people dress up anyway. Shirt, slacks, and tie should work just fine. Enjoy.. ask questions.. try to get a wide variety of responses so your exposure isn't just limited to a specific group of students or professors. Have fun and hope you learn something there!

I actually flew in from NY, for the OMAC the year I was applying...and I really believed it helped on my gaining admissions. It is REALLY GOOD to talk about on your secondary application...and the school really looks favorably on it...
I am an MS1 here at COMP now...with Melancholy....
The conference is good, gives you a chance to see the school, meet faculty and students, and can potentially give you that little edge you need to get an acceptance letter...

If you can go....then go!

Thak Yosh, every little bit that can help is good right

Hmm.. I didn't originally sign up to help out with OMAC.. wasn't even sure when the next one would be. If I see the opportunity and life is relatively sane, I might try and help out.. just a bit busy with neuro system right now heh.
