+1OOS II 30 minutes ago!
DMU is a private school so they don't differentiate between IS and OOS applicants. With that being said, I feel it would definitely be worth it to apply this cycle.I'm an in-state applicant that applied to only MD this cycle. I've grown interest towards DMU as the cycle has progressed (I'm from there and have become increasingly aware of how much I would benefit from living near home during med school). I have a good shot at another acceptance in the coming weeks and would probably take it if I got it (Top 30 MD), but Des Moines is kind of what I WANT to do.
My question is whether or not it would be worth my time to apply this cycle? Have IS II pretty much stopped at this point? I don't mind the idea of reapplying if the MD program doesn't work out, but I want to know if sending out a shot to DMU would be worth the time and ~$200.
Thanks y'all!
Nah, It’s February and II are now just trickling out slowly at this point. By the time you submit your app (not sure if you already sent out a primary DO app, but by the sound of it, you have not) and get verified (4-6 week process), then receive a secondary (some people have been waiting months and still don’t have a secondary), it will be end of March to mid April already, and by then we’re pretty much already at the end of the cycle. Might as well wait till May and submit for next cycle. You’ll get more bang for your buck this way.I'm an in-state applicant that applied to only MD this cycle (doesn't matter bc they're private ik, but just for context).

DMU doesn't have a secondary, and I would highly doubt it would take 4-6 weeks to be verified, more like 2. I agree chances aren't the best, but the odds probably beat the opportunity cost of a year if they have decent stats.Nah, It’s February and II are now just trickling out slowly at this point.

If by this cycle you mean for the class of 2028, save your money and wait until next cycle. Its very late and they've already offered a lot of acceptances, so it would be hard to get an interview/AI'm an in-state applicant that applied to only MD this cycle (doesn't matter bc they're private ik, but just for context).

It does not allow multiple takes.I am doing my "interview" tomorrow, does anyone know if it allows you to record multiple takes (the answer is probably not but i'm just curious)? This just feels an awful lot like ca$per...
Okay thank you!It does not allow multiple takes.
When were you complete?OOS II yesterday
last week of AugustWhen were you complete?
Can someone clarify the following? (assuming answer is no for both but just wanted to check)
For Kira interview- are there questions specific to your application or are they all just general med school interview questions since it’s not live? Do they give you time to ask questions like you would during a live interview? (I know there’s no one to answer them but maybe they would during the q&a day?)
Thanks
Is the live event also an interview of sorts or is it more to ask some questions to current students?
