I tend to study better by watching lecture videos at a faster speed rather than sitting in class. I'm applying DO this coming cycle and am wondering if any DO schools video record (not just audio) most lectures. Anyone go to or know of schools where this is the case?
 
you need to watch somebody's mouth move at 2x speed?
 
WVSOM, Touros (I think all of them, but definitely NY and NV), NYIT and many other schools as well. Just don't know them by hand. I don't think CCOM records the lectures, whereas AZCOM, most lectures are recorded. For some reason I am hitting a blank right now, but I'll edit my post if I think of more.

RowanSOM records as well. There is also a server with old OMM lectures where they can switch to a camera and the professor demonstrates the technique.

Apparently CCOM has begun recording.
 
Add OU-HCOM to your list, but if you are out of state, you might not want to waste your time applying. They don't accept very many OOSers, and they make them all sign a commitment to spend 5 years as a doc in Ohio after graduation.

Good to know, thanks! I'm looking to apply all over the place, but I probably won't apply to places with few OOS acceptances if I don't have a tie to that state.
 
You never know, I got into a school with a large OOS bias and I'm from the other side of the country with 0 ties.
 
RVUCOM records all lectures and now PCM (Clinical med) and OPP labs as well. (Labs are required, most lectures are not)

This is quite true, especially as it seems that some of the OOS biases could be a fair bit overstated on SDN. The state schools like Ohio, Oklahoma, Texas et al have huge OOS bias as the proportion of students is set in state law. But this factor seems to be a lot more amorphous at the private institutions. For example, when I interviewed at the school you will be attending, there were no in-state people and only a few from surrounding states, all the rest were from really far afield. Most of the student ambassadors on my interview day were also from outside the region. This was true of a couple of other schools where I interviewed also that allegedly had OOS bias. So, it almost makes me wonder if the bias is actually as big as people make it out to be :shrug:?

EDITS: Evidently grammar is not my strong suit today...:smack:

I understand what you're getting at, but I also don't want to throw my (limited) money at a school that excepts 4 OOS students every year. I do think people on here go overboard with the OOS bias ideas though. I am including some schools with 20% OOS students if there's something really like about that school. I noticed that some DO school admission websites state they will tell you if you're a competitive OOS applicant for them if you call, so I think I'm definitely going to contact those schools before applying.


Thanks for all the replies!
