6 out of 10

How is the responsiveness of the admissions office?

5 out of 10

How did you prepare for the interview?

SDN.

What impressed you positively?

99% Board Pass Rate.

What impressed you negatively?

In addition to typical complaints about the school (excessive amount of armed security, dress code, no water in lecture hall), I was put off by the fact that no one could elaborate on the research opportunities in the school despite the emphasis they placed on the fact that they had research building.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

Nothing. I did my research so many of the draconian policies of the school were known to me.

What are your general comments?

I have confidence that LECOM will provide me with the necessary education to pass my boards and graduate with a DO degree, but other than that there isn't really much appealing about this particular school.

What are your suggestions for the admissions office?

No responses
