I'm so lame guys, I've never had a facebook, but I think, the KCUMB 2015 page just might be worth setting one up

I'd be the only one from ND..I think. Is there a way to search in the group for a certain state (or any other factor) on Facebook? I don't use it very often so I'm not very 'fcbk'-literate...

and 6 months feels like forever when it's 40 BELOW ZERO with windchill! can't wait for a warmer winter.

Hello fellow KCUMBers. Quick question. As a California resident I would love to eventually make it back to the sunshine. When I interviewed, my interviewer said I could come back to CA for rotations but after looking at the list of affiliated hospitals, I realized there aren't any CA rotation sites. Are we allowed to set up our own rotations or what's the deal? 😕

They were talking about your 4th year rotation, you can do audition rotations in Cali based on what you're intersted in.
 
has anyone had any luck finding the residency match list????? it's nowhere like it doesn't even exist...shouldn't this be something important to find before making a decision about a school??

I asked the student ambassadors and my interviewers and no one seems to know anything about it...it just seems a little odd!!

Basically what wolfie said, if you want to do residency somewhere then just do all your audition rotations here. Also, I'll respond to your PM in a minute.

Class of 09: http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=83616587344&v=wall

MightyMoose also sent me a list via PM from the KCUMB website but I can't find it in my inbox for whatever reason, if you ask him I'm sure he can direct you to it. It's there, just a bit difficult to find for some reason. Brace yourself for it when you do get to it, it's off the hook. Specialty matches EVERYWHERE, more than any other DO school list I've seen.

Just a general comment. I go to KCUMB and really like it and am very confident I will get into the program I want to do. Some people in my class that dont like the school chose the school simply because we had better listed matches than the other school they were choosing between. Even if matches are impressive, keep in mind that there are no stats published which will tell you what % matched first choice/second choice. At the same time, people think that going to DMU would give you an advantage if you wanted to do surgery because it is a second year course taught there, but %wise KCUMB has just as many people going into surgery each year.

I'm not sure which list, but I'm guessing you mean the match lists. Let me see if I can find them again.

I think these are what Mega is referring to:

http://forums.studentdoctor.net/showpost.php?p=7418998&postcount=224

It has the 2007 and 2008 match lists.

I had to use the FB page to check on some matches for 2009 as well.

THANKS dkrames1 and mightymoose... I checked that thread too and I drew a conclusion:

I calculated the % of top specialties (derm,plastics,ortho-surg,gen-surg,anes,radio,patho,uro,neuro) achieved among all the matches for most DO schools listed and KCUMB has the highest percentages. Then AZCOM,DMU,UMDNJ. For KCUMB, it's 28% of the people listed. the rest are OBGYN,IM,EM,Fam,Psyc. and lots of those IM people would go on with fellowships...

now I can't wait for the final decision in 10 days :scared:
my interview was so short..maybe 25 minutes and at the end I asked questions for like 10 min...I don't know what that means..they either knew I was the right person from the beginning or the opposite 😕 we all seemed to really enjoy the interview though!!
 
Who did you interview with? My interview was really short too (20 min with 5 minutes of my questions), but successful. I interviewed with Drs. Clay and Wright.

I had a different panel...Dr. May and another lady I can't seem to remember...did you interview on the 19th? maybe they shortened the interview time due to the snow???
 
I think 30 minutes is about their standard interview time. Mine was ~30 minutes as well, but it felt like it was 5 minutes...

Then AZCOM,DMU,UMDNJ. For KCUMB, it's 28% of the people listed. the rest are OBGYN,IM,EM,Fam,Psyc. and lots of those IM people would go on with fellowships...

now I can't wait for the final decision in 10 days :scared:
my interview was so short..maybe 25 minutes and at the end I asked questions for like 10 min...I don't know what that means..they either knew I was the right person from the beginning or the opposite 😕 we all seemed to really enjoy the interview though!!

I know what you mean about the interview feeling somewhat short, after mine I began worrying mine was unusually brief, but I got in, so try not to worry too much, I'm sure you did great 🙂 Just think in 10 days you will know !!

Both student ambassadors and faculty told us the interview time made no difference in a decision. I think mine was about 20-15 min too, and I felt really good after... and then got in 😀

Back to the locations topic: I'm glad to see there's a handful of people being placed in Fl (both for rotations and residency). I'm not originally from there, but after being here for almost a year now, there's just no going back to Old Man Winter
 
mine felt like 15-20 minutes tops. And I thought it didn't go so well. - but then I got in too. i guess it really just depends.

Haha, that was my exact thought. I have all but chosen anesthesiology as my specialty (I know, it's bad to pick before med school... blah, blah, blah) and am encouraged by the number of matches. You can also look at the different residency program websites to see where their residents come from. That list is pretty awesome.

Also, there was a guy that did a calculation with all of the (I can't remember how he phrased it...) "top" specialties, and left off anesthesiology... I am pretty sure it would be considered a top choice...

sorry, just saw that the poster actually included anes in his calculations... my bad.

if the guy was me, yes I did include it LOL...if you also include OB/GYN into "top" ones, the ratio is 33% which is pretty awesome...

This exactly matches what my interviewer told me on Wednesday..I asked her whether or not she knows what percentage of KCUMB students go on to specialties other than primary care...and she said " I would say 30%".

I'm totally with you on that one, man. As of now anesthesiology is my top choice, so I always look at the anesthesia portion of the match list and KCUMB's are always looking good. Oh, one of my interviewers was an alum that is an anesthesiologist, that was very nice to see.
 
I just looked at the floor plans for Century towers. Has anyone seen the apartments and can tell me if there are bath tubs in the apartments or just showers? Thanks!
 
is anyone interested in the DO/MBA dual program???

someone at the interview asked the student ambassadors about the tuition difference between the DO and DO/MBA and she replied NONE...bit I was just looking at the website (http://www.rockhurst.edu/HSOM/programs/domba/tuition.asp) and it says the the MBA portion costs 30K...was the ambassador wrong or something??

I asked the same question, and although I don't remember what the fee was but there definately was a fee and 30K sounds about right.
 
I remember them saying something about that at the student panel when I interviewed. I think they are right that it is $30,000 more, but I think I remember them saying something about that covering the whole MBA, it's a one-time payment

A student ambassador in my group said he is paying it in 3 installments--10k each year starting 2nd year.

I was originally interested in the MBA program, but after re-thinking it I think I'm going to just focus on my medical studies. It is kind of expensive to lump on top of med school loans (and if you're really into getting an MBA there are some practices that will help you pay for it if you decide to go back and get one). Was it you that said you were interested in taking rotations in Cali? Another potential downside to the dual MBA is that you have to stay in KC to complete it, so you'd have to stay in KC for your clinical rotations.

That might have been me. You have to stay for your fourth year ones too?
 
@Phil Dunphy: I have no sense of business and I think as a physician one really needs to know the business side of the practice...I thought that having the MBA (about 40 credits of courses) will definitely help me make more in the long run. I don't know if that's true but again knowing business means you know how to make money.

@megathunder: I would actually love to go to either Cali or Florida to practice too. I was at the MBA website (I posted earlier) it said that the last courses you take are during your first semester of third year. So I think whoever that wants to do MBA, will need to stay in KC for the 3rd year, but I think we can go anywhere for the 4th.


Also don't you guys think 40 credits of course load is a BIG DEAL in addition to med school??

At the Family Practice Clinic I shadowed at, there was a resident who stayed for a fourth year to get his MBA. I'm pretty sure that residency program helped finance his MBA in return for helping the younger residents.

Edit: I found this on their website about obtaining a masters while doing your residency: "Receiving tuition support for a masters programs – though the exact amount has not been determined, the residency will pay for some or all of your tuition costs for your advanced degree"
