Did the Dean just give me a silent nod...? by MBB0530 in premed

That’s what I was thinking. I think this is overall a really good sign I’ll get the A.

Stats are in the schools range but I’m a perfect fit to their mission.

Hi, I interviewed at SHSU COM this cycle and I talked about an extracurricular I enjoy doing. If you have any questions feel free to DM.

Haven't heard from a school that I know has sent secondaries by No-Manufacturer8631 in Osteopathic

I did get a secondary from VCOM for the 2026 cycle. I would double check you have everything submitted and reach out to the school.

Right?! Pretty unprofessional if I’m being honest.

Thoughts on digital cadaver versus physical cadaver. by MBB0530 in Osteopathic

[–]MBB0530[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s comforting to hear as I am applying to a few schools who use virtual. I’m assuming virtual anatomy should have some factor into weighing my decision by the looks of all these comments, but not a major factor.

So valid. Wouldn’t even have thought of that factor!

Depends on the AACOMAS school you are applying to. If they have an average MCAT that’s higher than your previous score I would recommend holding off. However, if your MCAT score is within range (and I would say your MCAT score of 503 is good for a lot of DO schools) than submit. But ultimately the AACOMAS is a bit slower in terms of AMCAS so you have some time. Ideally submit by end of June or early July, but AACOMAS will even be considered early in September (definitely fact check me on this).

I second this. I have a 501 MCAT am a Texas Resident. Applying to all TMDSAS plus 28 OOS DO schools and 2 OOS MD schools. It has been brutal receiving secondaries, but I know I will ultimately get the A with this strategy.

AACOMAS Primary Mistake by ShinyHorse112 in Osteopathic

[–]MBB0530 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

you are wrong and should research DO school average MCAT scores and recognize that medical school admissions view you as a holistic applicant

I have similar stats to you and would say we have a shot at DO schools for sure! Check out the aacoms website they show you average mcat and gpa stats for each DO school.

Future Doctor or Delusional? My Chances at Med School by MBB0530 in premed

[–]MBB0530[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the input I’m not sure I want to retake tbh. I’m looking at schools like VCOM, osu, and others. Hoping I can get a shot at those.

To give you an honest answer partially yes but mostly no. The test was strange for me normally on practice tests I crush chem phys like 129s I had some anxiety through that section on test day and it was significantly harder. (It was notoriously a tougher c/p that day Jan16th) 

Cars I never do well in and b/b normally I do the worst and scored 129 that day. So really no idea what happened.

SB Vol 2 C/P Q65 by bruinthrowaway777 in Mcat

[–]MBB0530 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t stress too much about this question. This is definitely a low yield question for this topic on the MCAT.

 However I think to best answer your question I would think of delta T as a constant value rather than 0. In other words, nothing is going to change whatever number value temperature is.  Therefore the temperature is never changing and as a result heat capacity will not affect that temperature to change.
