9 - Meet Dr. Mike Kennedy From UNTHSC - Texas College Of Osteopathic Medicine


Today's guest, Dr. Mike Kennedy, from the UNTHSC - Texas College of Osteopathic Medicine, addresses common applicant questions about osteopathic medicine and how closely it mirrors allopathic medicine.

We also learn more about how TCOM students impact not just Fort Worth or the DFW region, but also statewide and globally. Dr. Kennedy's advice to applicants includes UNTHSC-TCOM's shift to using MMIs (Multiple Mini Interviews) starting this application cycle.
