Good afternoon, I just got accepted here and want to see if I can get in contact with some current students or graduates, more specifically any third or 4th year students to ask questions on rotations. I want to critically assess this school and so any info helps.
 
Why not ask public ally so all can benefit ? Ask away otherwise I’m a graduate.

overall verdict is the school sucks though. Ask publiclly for specifics

“The school sucks”… how do? I’m intrigued. Please tell!!!

For a veteran school, weak COMLEX pass rates as well (see COMLEX Level 1 First Time Pass Rates - 2016-2023)

The administration of the parent body fired a dean for supporting social justice and racial equality.

Their position is: On August 14th (2020), an Associate Dean of Students emailed new student policy that stated: “You are not allowed to be involved in any form of public statement about social justice and racial inequities in medicine in any prominent location on the LMU campus”."

It’s also worth noting that before investing in themselves to make the med school better, or even adequate, they jumped on the gravy train and opened a branch in Knoxville. That meant two mediocre DO schools in TN instead of one good one. Now they want to have a McLMU in Florida, a state that already has three DO and eight MD schools.
 
I agree with Goro on “the school sucking” but there is a lot more to the school than that simple statement.

As an OMS-2 currently at the school, there is a rampant cheating culture that the Dean overlooks and brushes under the rug. I know a good amount of students who have reported those that are cheating to maintain the integrity of becoming a physician but the school does not care. They will tell their students that they will look into it but they never do and allow the cheating students to walk free while punishing those that have reported the incident. The school is dangerous to the medical field and should be heavily avoided and lose accreditation
