"What does osteopathic medicine mean to you?...I was interviewed by a PhD so I wondered how he was able to evaluate the answer since he was not a DO." Report Response | I was asked this question too
"I was asked to explain a low grade on my application. This was the first question he asked after sitting down so I thought it was going to be an ugly interview. It was the only negative he asked about." Report Response | I was asked this question too
"What do you think the academic environment of medical school is like and what does it take to be succesful?" Report Response | I was asked this question too
"No suprises in the interview questions...very conversational...was asked to explain what osteopathic medicine means to me." Report Response | I was asked this question too
"This was a pleasent interview. The question about osteopathic medicine required the most thought, but I had been asked that in a few previous interviews." Report Response | I was asked this question too
"looked over sdn interview feedback, school website, reviewed ACCOMAS app." Report Response
"The facilites look nice. Lecture halls, anatomy lab, availability of streaming lectures etc. all modern with integrated technology (even when compared to DMU!) I was impressed with the Stan and Peda patient models as well as the clinical practice set up. The problem based learning type pathway was also appealing. Also, the affiliation hospitals are second to none for DO schools, which is advantageous to competitive residency placement." Report Response
"The large class size is not ideal. However, its always up to the individual to remain either an anonomous member of the class or get involved in clubs, groups, volunteering etc." Report Response
"The one advantage to NYCOM starting interviews later than all the other DO schools is that I had a chance to check out a lot of other places before going here." Report Response
"After reviewing the mixed interview feedback and forum posts on SDN about NYCOM I didn't know what to expect before my visit. My impression of the school was better than I expected. I made a list of the strengths that each previously visited school had. This list included technology, facilities, affilation hospitals, availablity of problem based learning pathway, and residency match list. Unlike any of the other schools I have visited, NYCOM is strong in every one of these catagories. Obviously, if accepted, this is where I will be going." Report Response
