Just found this site.. which I'm sure all of may have at one point or another.. Can anyone tell me if this is ACTUALLY accurate, or if it is just some sort of scam site? Here's the link: . my stats are currently input, but as you can see you can put your own in as well. http://www.studentdoc.com/component...pe,do_school/selected_state,PA/view,doschool/

Not accurate. Just from a quick glance it has both NYCOM and LECOM's MCAT average at ~21.6. That's not even remotely close.

If you click on each school.. It gives averages of each individual section of the MCAT... I see what you did with the schools you listed was just add up each "average". Is that correct to do that? or can they only be taken as is.
Also, if this site is not legitimate, what other resource can I use to compare DO schools to see if I'm competitive?
Thanks!

www.doapplicants.com has a pretty good table to use.
original link is inaccurate *and* despite randomly recognizing VCOM (est. 2007), it recognizes no other school built post 2003.

just apply to schools YOU want to go to...not because they are easy and not because they are reputable...wherever you feel you will be succesful and happy, do that, because your going to live there for 4 years so choose wisely my med student friends said
👍 I don't think it gets much easier or clear cut than this.

Yeah that site is one that I've used before. I believe they used US News's stats for most of the schools...and they tried to get as accurate stats as possible for the 4-5 schools that don't participate in US News's survey.
I applied last year. I put my stats in and the number one match interviewed and waitlisted me (never made it off the list) and the number 2 match rejected me pre-interview. Didn't apply to #3, accepted to #4 and #5. IMO/IME it is not accurate, lol.
