Apply to the Post-bacc first. I know people in previous classes that have done the masters if the Post-Bacc year doesn't go how you want it to. As for GPA, the only thing that matters to LECOM is how you perform in the Post-Bacc program so if you meet their standards and act professional there is a very high chance you get in.
If you applied through AACOMAS, then they will pull your letters from there for your Post-Bacc application and you won't have to send anything else in, but I think if you send both to LECOM you should be ok. And I don't think it would be too late to apply in July, I know people in this year's class that didn't get their acceptance letters until late August.
You don't exactly get to choose, I know people that applied for PBL and DSP, but still got put into LDP. Do as well as you can in the first semester and you have a better chance at the more preferred pathways like DSP and PBL. However, if you do not get the pathway you want the first time, you can always try and talk to the director of whatever pathway you want. The biggest piece of advice though, don't worry about pathways until the spring. Do the best you can and the fall and try to put yourself in a good position GPA wise.
And I went with DSP.
you got this my decision was made that fast also and i got in
MCAT 499 SGPA 2.97 but i think they still go by the old AACOMAS one so it was a 3.2 (that was with grade forgiveness) and a CGPA IS 3.3
Only if you do well! I am pretty sure it would help a lot. U just have to do well and have a decent DAT and so on
Do you know how many kids have gotten into the medical school ? Did most them have to attend the erie campus for medical school or did they give option of going to the other two campuses. Thanks
even for their osteopathic medical school?
Completing the program doesn’t guarantee an acceptance. But as long as you have a 3.2 or better and the acceptable MCAT/AIS score and haven’t gotten into any trouble, then you’re golden for an acceptance as long as your interview goes well.
Usually a little over than half will make it to the medical school. I don’t really know how many other people in my class have gotten an acceptance but you have to attend Erie for the post bacc and on the day of your interview you can choose which location you would prefer if it’s Seton Hill or Bradenton.
thanks for the info I am from Tampa, Fl its like 30-45 mins from Bradenton and would def prefer that location
From everything I have heard from former students is you can choose the Bradenton campus but is not always guaranteed and there is few spots for Bradenton. I am also from Florida and have a baby and wife so ideally would like to move back so I'm guessing if you do really good in the program and tell them your from Florida is will help. That is my goal.
Same boat as you! Let me know how it works out for you, gonna retake orgo 2 in summer 1!
thx are you referring to the in-program gpa(SMP) or undergrad?
Lmao I will edit my post and delete it. Would you mind making a new post so that people here can see it? I only made one cuz I couldn’t find one
