Just a few questions about PCOM...thanks in advance for any responses.

Does anyone know if PCOM streams all or nearly all of their lectures online?

What is the average age of a student at PCOM?

Is there a good amount of diversity?

Are Osteopathic Schools ranked in anyway?

1. mp3's (so audio, but not video) and scribe service puts lecture transcripts/notes online

2. not sure exactly...but theres a good mix bw the low 20's to low/mid 30's...If I had to guess I would say 26ish avg in my class

3.not a tremendous amount....but many ethnic groups are represented (albeit the majority is still white)

4. no rankings of osteopathic schools themselves exists, but there are around 3-4 osteopathic schools ranked in w/ the allopathic schools in the US news world rankings for top 50 forprimary care (the other ranking list is based largely on research dollars, something DO schools are not overly big on)

hope that helps
