Any one hear anything about any movement on the wait list??
Hey everyone, I just decided that I want to apply to DO school (almost ready to submit my application) and was wondering if someone can tell me what my chances are at NYCOM. I'm a NY resident with a 3.92 GPA (cumulative, science, and non-science as well). I majored in Biology and Philosophy as an undergrad, and have lots of clinical experience (volunteered in a hospital, worked as an EMT) as well as research experience. I also have leadership and teaching experience. I am shadowing both MD and DO physicians this summer. However, I have a really bad MCAT verbal score (PS-10, VR-5, BS-12, WS O: 27O). I just retook the MCAT recently and am waiting for my score (hope that verbal score goes up). Is that 5 going to be a huge red flag for NYCOM? Or do my other credentials make up for it? Thanks!![]()

sad to see that you won't be at nycom longshanks, you're one of the nicest and most helpful people on this site, i'm sad that i won't get to meet you in person 🙁 but i wish you the best of luck wherever you are!!! 🙂
and good luck to the waitlisters, hopefully you guys will hear some good news soon!![]()
Thank you! That's very kind of you.
Yeah, it was a tough choice. I was mentally psyched for NYCOM at this point and starting the year but got a late acceptance the other week from a school I interviewed at in March. NYCOM is a great place and was my top DO choice, so very grateful to have had that opportunity. I'll still be in the area, so who knows - maybe bump into you on an elective haha.
Called this week. There has been no movement. The secretary isn't sure if the waitlist will move at all. There have been years where it didn't move. Hate to be a Debbie Downer but I would start looking for other options at this point. Sorry fellow waitlisters.
If people have been withdrawing and their is no movement then it's a bad sign. Gl people.
