SDN, KCOM.edu, reviewed application

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you positively?

Lots of time spent interviewing, thus giving interviewers a good opportunity to get to know me. Facilities were great, including the OMM lab, gross lab and Stan the mechanical patient. KCOM has excellent placement opportunities for rotations and the grads generally get top residency picks.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What impressed you negatively?

Nothing.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Nothing really. Kirksville is small, but you already knew that.

Report Response | I was asked this too

What are your general comments?

The day begins with a short intro to KCOM by the director of admissions, then you go straight to interviews: two one-hour interviews with faculty members and one 15-30 minute interview with an admissions officer. Compared to other schools, this is a LOT of time interviewing. And that's a good thing. KCOM spends a lot of time actuallly getting to know applicants. During my interviews, we covered everything from a low grade I had to Law & Order to my clinical work to travel. This is not to say that we bullshitted the whole time, but simply to say that they were interested in more than standard interview questions like "What are your weaknesses?" After the interviews we had lunch with students, a campus tour and a useful financial aid presentation.
