I was wondering if anyone here has completed the supp app for LECOM in florida. I was looking at the essay questions and it doesn't state the word count they are looking for.

Could you please tell me the average word count for these type of supp applications essays.

I don't know either...I was actually going to ask the same question. Have you visited this campus before? I only live like 1.5 hours away from there so I really want to go there. Where are you located at in Fl?

 

[tompharm]

I live in tampa, so it's not too far from home.
I haven't made an on campus visit yet. I was going to attend an open house last year but I never made it.

If its not stated I would go for no more than a page. I'm doing those questions now and its like a long paragraph or two.

can we keep each other updated on LECOM via this thread?

 

[CpharmAH1]

I called and they told me to write just what I consider to be reasonable, so I wrote like a paragraph for the essay about the school and like 5 for the other one.

 

[LoKoTe]

Yeah, me too ... 4 paragraphs for the first one and just 1 for the second question.

Isn't the first question a lot like the Pharmcas essay as in what has prepared you for the program?

Congrats on your invite!!!
when did you submit your PharmCAS and supplemental?

 

[NewRx]

PharmCAS was complete on September 28.

Today, I received an email from LECOM inviting me to fill the supplementals.

Hopefully, after I send them, I'll get two more invitations: interview & ADMISSION

Good luck!
