Congrats! When were you complete?interview today! I’m thrilled OOS and no connections so I’m a little surprised but so happy! gpa 3.4, both science and normal and 508 mcat
If you submitted your primary in August, they are still processing Aug apps right now. You should get it soon!How long does it take to get a secondary? It's been more than a couple weeks and nothing yet,
Thank god, I was just thinking "Oh god have I been screened out by Touro, please no, I really like them, I prewrote the secondary and everything...."If you submitted your primary in August, they are still processing Aug apps right now. You should get it soon!
The interview itself is 1 hour and 15 minutes. The first hour will be the actual interview. The last 15 minutes will be left for you to ask any questions that you may have.Any tips for the interview/ how long is it?
same. It was one of the first schools I pre wrote.Thank god, I was just thinking "Oh god have I been screened out by Touro, please no, I really like them, I prewrote the secondary and everything...."
I just got mine this morning, I was submitted 8/17Thank god, I was just thinking "Oh god have I been screened out by Touro, please no, I really like them, I prewrote the secondary and everything...."
I think the main reason things have been going slowly is because September had several major Jewish holidays and the admissions office was closed for them. They've been sending secondaries and interview invites slowly throughout October. I don't know if there's way more applicants this year. To my knowledge, the applicant pool is pretty average in size this year. Last cycle had more than usual and many schools were done before December, but this year it seems to be progressing at a more normal pace.does this mean there are way more applicants this year?
When were you complete? JWII today! OOS, ORM, Lizzy M 67.8
LET'S GOOOOOO! You got this!!!Just got the secondary invite, submitted primary end of August! I'm excited to send it right back to them
End of Aug.When were you complete? JW
any advice for the interview?Accepted one week ago 10/29/21! Feel very fortunate to be here. Good luck everyone!!
Your state residency is not a factor when we evaluate your application. Though the majority of our enrolled students have CA residency, that is a function of our applicant pool, who are mostly from CA.Thought I got ghosted since I'm OOS. But sent primary in Sept and just received secondary today.
Does anyone know if this school has heavy in-state bias?
This happened to me, I simply sent an email listing out each course that met the pre-reqs and they corrected it.I completed all my pre-reqs, yet in the email they said all my subjects do not meet the pre-reqs. Did this happen to anyone?
It's not a hinderance at all. The bridge is over the Napa river, which flows into the bay. It's really small and occasionally stops traffic when large boats/ships need to go through.Anyone currently attending willing to speak on the location of the school? Does the location hinder your experience at all? Not being in SF or cali but moreso the physical school needing bridge access not much near it etc. Thanks!
Half of the questions were specific to our applications, so the answers varied greatly across candidates. For the more general questions, no one seemed to copy responses from others. The panel really made it simple, comfortable, and even enjoyable to have the group interview.... which was surprising to me, as I was nervous about the format myself. Each person spoke about 3-4 times answering questions.For those that interviewed how do you think it felt when interviewing in a group setting? was it hard to have unique answers or was everyone talking over each other?
I think that should be fine, I submitted like 4-5 days after getting my secondary because I was busy with work.Does the school take into account the turn around time on the secondary. Turns out I had to do some editing when I thought I was done so I’ll be submitting it after a week.
They replied and corrected it in 3 days.What was the turn around time? I wan to make sure before I fork the secondary fee.
The reason why first years in the fall semester have so many exams is due to anatomy being condensed into 1 semester. Other medical schools have anatomy spread out over an entire year or 2. The administration sets anatomy to 1 semester because it prepares you for when you learn about systems such as cardio, resp, and renal, meaning you do less work later on. The exam schedule is much lighter in the second semester compared to the first.-course content is harder than at other DO schools (anecdotally from friends at other schools). We also have a test like every week. I remember taking 5 or 6 in the first month of school.
It is true that the school is "older". However, that is because the land used to be used by the military for WW2. One of the atomic bombs was housed here. For this reason, many buildings are deemed historic. That being said, there is a large building being renovated that will be converted to dorms, study spaces, admin offices, and labs.Cons:
-small school, run down buildings. Won’t be some amazing campus that you’ll love.
Not necessary. Your resume is your primary app.Should we upload a resume?

I am praying for an II from this school.
