School Info

A new medical school for the whole of Northern Ontario, the Northern Ontario School of Medicine is a joint initiative of Laurentian University, Sudbury and Lakehead University, Thunder Bay. With main campuses in Thunder Bay and Sudbury, the School has multiple teaching and research sites distributed across Northern Ontario, including large and small communities. NOSM contributes to improving the health of people in Northern Ontario.

Curriculum

Our innovative undergraduate or MD program involves students learning in small groups, much of the time in distributed community-based learning sites supported by broadband communication information technology. The curriculum is clinically driven, while ensuring students gain a strong grounding in core knowledge and skills including the basic sciences.

Facilities

NOSM has two state-of-the-art research labs, one at its east campus at Laurentian University in Sudbury, and one at its west campus at Lakehead University in Thunder Bay. In addition, the School works in partnership with universities, private sector organizations, and health centres across the North to facilitate research initiatives which have a strong focus on the health issues of Northern communities.

What is one of the specific questions they asked you (question 1)?

"cannot disclose due to signing of confidentiality agreement, however all questions were fair game." More from this Member | Report Response | I was asked this question too

"Know NOSM's curriculum, teaching style, general program requirements as they may ask about your learning style, or what you think of specific things (all stuff you can get from their website)" More from this Member | Report Response | I was asked this question too

"In 20 years from now, what do you expect to be doing?" More from this Member | Report Response | I was asked this question too

"In general: Understand the importance of culture and society in medicine/life, and understand social accountability...all with personal examples" More from this Member | Report Response | I was asked this question too

"Unable to say, due to strict confidentiality agreements. " More from this Member | Report Response | I was asked this question too

"sorry... cannot disclose" More from this Member | Report Response | I was asked this question too

What was the most interesting question?

"a situational medical ethics question" More from this Member | Report Response | I was asked this question too

"I was surprised at how specific the issues were in the questions (lots of medical ethics).....REALLY make an effort at throwing in personal examples at every station or else the interviewer will not get to know you." More from this Member | Report Response | I was asked this question too

"A diabetic patient stops taking her conventional medication and turns to faith healing. Discuss issues." More from this Member | Report Response | I was asked this question too

"pro's and con's of the MCAT and why i think NOSM does not utilize it." More from this Member | Report Response | I was asked this question too

"what would I do if a peer in my class seemed depressed or suicidal. " More from this Member | Report Response | I was asked this question too

"signed a confidentiality form.. but the question was in relation to typical stresses upon med students.. " More from this Member | Report Response | I was asked this question too

"Perhaps the most interesting question was the non-disclosure statement that I signed... therefore prohibiting me from discussing questions in detail. However, in a vague sense, the most interesting questions were those that intricately conjured-up a discussion linking ethics and very current events." More from this Member | Report Response | I was asked this question too

About the LizzyM Score

LizzyM, SDN Moderator and medical school admissions committee member, is the inventor of the LizzyM Score. The score allows you to see if you are a competitive applicant at a given school. If your LizzyM Score is far below or above the average, you may not be a good fit. If your score is far below, your application may be screened out due to numerical cutoffs. If it is far above, the school may assume they are your “safety” school and that you won’t attend if they offer an acceptance. This score should be used only as a guide to help you select schools and is not a guarantee of acceptance at any school. If you use this as your sole criteria to select medical schools to apply to, you don’t deserve to get in anyway.
