Hi anyone have a copy of NYCOM secondary that they can scan in for me. I have an interview in a couple of days and just realized that I did not receive the secondary application in my packet. The admissions office is sending me one, but I am afraid it may get here too late. Can I just get the questions if you can't create a file. Thanks! I think I'll owe one of you my fingers or toes for this

I recently completed the NYCOM secondary. Unfortunately, I do not have a scanner. The form will not take you more than 30 minutes to complete. The longest section -- about 5 lines -- asks "Why do you want to go to NYCOM?" Other questions ask about your research experience, work experience, extracurriculars/hobbies, and clinical experience. Judging by the amount of space they provide, they're looking for concise lists of things, not paragraphs and essays.
PM me if you need any more info.
Cheers,
PH

I wish I could help you with the scanning but here are the list of questions...so at the very least you can just have those answered on a seperate sheet to be attached to this when you get there for the interview.
1. List all paid work experiences from highschool graduation to present (with dates):
2. List all volunteer (medical or other) work experience (with dates):
3. List all research experiences (with dates):
4. List and describe your hobbies and recreational interests:
5. Indicate your extracurricular activities and the extent of your involvement (office held etc) while enrolled as a student:
6. List the names and relationships of relatives in the osteopathic profession:
7. How did you become interested in osteopathic medicine? (choose one) osteopathic physician, pre-health advisor, nycom admissions office, or other
8. In the space below (not a big space at all), discuss your reasons for applying to NYCOM.
9. They ask you to list where you requested recommendations from etc.
Finally a signature and photograph are requested (2 x 2)
I hope this helps anyone in need. It sucks you didn't have a secondary application with your interview invite. Goodluck
