How did you prepare for the interview?

Know your application and your experiences and of course the history of Osteopathic medicine as this is the founding school.

What impressed you positively?

The students and faculty. All so nice! The students all know each other and have a strong bond and a sense of community with the staff. They were genuinely happy and sincere in answering questions. Everybody was really helpful. Very impressed with high board scores including higher USMLE scores than the allopathic average!

What impressed you negatively?

Kirksville...small town in the middle of nowhere. No diversity.

What did you wish you had known ahead of time?

I'm glad I stayed with a student. Stay with a student if you interview here! You learn alot more about student life at KCOM.

What are your general comments?

The facilities are great. This school is really into OMM, as well as the history of osteopathic medicine. The interview is very relaxed and conversational. Faculty interviewers are nice and non-confrontational. You feel wanted! Everyone is helpful all day long.
