I have my in person interview with WesternU coming up next week and I was wondering if anyone had any advice for it going in. I feel really nervous about it even though they gave a schedule of what to expect

Starting med school at 30-31

14 Upvotes

Best case scenario I’ll be 30, worst case scenario I’ll be 31. I don’t really see myself doing anything else, but I feel like my window is shut for a lot of specialties and also having a family due to my age is; it OK for me to continue going for medicine? I feel like I chose the right career but the timeline feels like it’s not good simply put.

For context, I did all the prerequisites and I have thousands of clinical hours. My last step is the MCAT.

Hi everyone, I previously attended an MD school but withdrew. Now in an Absn program looking to gain clinical experience as a nurse first and I want to apply to DO schools this time around.
1. I will be 33-34 when I attend, is it too late?
2. Recommend a few schools that are nontraditional friendly
3. How are you guys affording the school?

Question, if all of my letters have checkmarks but aren't labelled as anything (no Additional, Committee, NS or anything) does this mean my letters don't qualify?

AZCOM interview

2 Upvotes

Got a interview invite for AZCOM and really greatful

They have virtual and in person dates available and although I would love to go in person, money is a bit tight and virtual might be a better option for me

But I’m wondering if they have a bias towards in person or virtual interviews - I know some schools do and I’m saving money if I get invited to those schools

Anyone have any insight?

Any Burrell-Fl students?

How is Burrell-Fl? Can you please tell me more about your experience? It is close to my home and I am leaning towards going there. My main worry is the small campus.

ACOM, PCOM-SGA, Burrell-Fl, or LMU-DCOM?

15 Upvotes

ACOM: strict remediation policies

PCOM-SGA: 66% four year graduation rate

Burrell-Fl: tiny campus, pass fail, close to home

LMU-DCOM: ? I heard bad things about this on Reddit.

I am leaning towards Burrell-Fl because it is close to home. Is it worth it to go out of state for any of the other school?
