When schools list an AOA derm match, does that mean that a current graduate of the school who is completing their transitional now year matched derm?
Yea that's the way I read it but there weren't any Prelim designations in that match list so I wasn't completely sure.
See if this link works for AZCOM:

The student that matched mayo-az gen-Surg was a categorical spot.
The other student who matched Urology at mayo-mn was also categorical.
This from a fellow KCOMer

Integrated Vascular match? AZCOM impressive as always
Any results back for NSU-COM?
The rumor-mill here is notorious for being inaccurate, and I'm tired of relying on it.
Please post UP-KYCOM !!!! Just got accepted and am dying to know where y'all match
Anyone seen Western's yet?
Any news from KCUMB yet? I haven't seen anything but I was hoping a current student had.

It won't be out for awhile im sure. But looks like a lot of good IM, Gas, ER, rads, and OB matches at some pretty well known places(aka ACGME and at university hospitals). Several ortho, a neurosurg, an ent, an optho. Ive heard a 2011 grad matched cleveland clinic derm but not 100% sure. Seems like almost everyone got their #1 choice. Not a very surgical class. Seems like very few people went for competitive specialties rather most people went for moderately competitive specialties at competitive programs.
I went through the match lists on medicine.nova.edu from 2006-2011 and given the "made on" dates in the properties of the .pdfs (yes, this is how I procrastinate) we won't see for a while in an official capacity. I'm talking as late as June.
Dang IM at UW. I wonder if it's traditional or primary care track?
Good ol' Nova. They'll have a meeting about the meeting to discuss when they'll meet to compile it I'm sure.
It'll be interesting to see when it comes out!
I was at the Clinical Ed department earlier today and they were going through the matchlist, I asked them to take a look, they said it was confidential and first has to go through OPTI, who will then approve it to be posted on the website.

Did you ever get an answer to this?

Damn, ok for all you bystanders out there, take a look at TCOMs list vs RVU. Not all DO schools are created equal.
I'm not meaning to hate on RVU bc of its tax status but it's just a prime example of a new DO school.

Looks like RVU swept past TCOM-NY....In fact, RVU match rates are shockingly stellar!

Did RVU students match? Yes. Are they going to be called Docors? Yes. Are their residencies accredited? Yes. So, after all of the B.S. on this site about how "BIG AND BAD" RVU is....it looks like their students win! So...how does that make you feel "hater in the closet"? I bet you are jealous

There is TCOM and TUCOM-NY. Clarify.
Thats right! Make them earn the T.
TouroCOM (if that's what you're referring to) had 131/135 students match, so that is a 97% match rate before the scramble.
Actually there is no TUCOM-NY. It's TouroCOM-NY because we are technically not the same entity as the campuses in nevada and california.
Dean of Students said it won't be available until at least April 1.anybody have any info on PCOM's match list?
...You are gonna be a doctor. You will find a job just about anywhere you want, no matter where you do your residency. ...
Isn't it the case, though, that the more established and renowned residencies will provide a student with better training through the "breaking-edge" instruments that can be afforded by those programs?
You need to go to a "big name" residency to have a shot at academic medicine or established private practices. Is that the case?
WesternU = impressive
This sounds like you are talking about surgery. I can not speak to that, as surgery is not my thing. My surgery attendings told me I wasn't "artistic" enough to be a surgeon... I was too "cerebral".
As far as the medical residencies, each college (ACP, AAFP, AAP, etc) has guidelines on what you must be exposed to as a resident. You'll be trained according to those guidelines, no matter where you go. Get boarded, and any where you apply will know that you are a capable doctor. "Breaking edge" in the medical residencies usually involves research, and usually wouldn't be standard of practice for several years wherever you landed for your career anyway.
Academic medicine = need to do a lot of research. You can do research pretty much anywhere. Granted, in some places it will be a lot harder because they don't have the support structure in place. But that's the choice you have to make.
From what I've seen (now, talking with limited exposure, and mostly to practices in the larger cities of the South), established practices want doctors who know what they are doing and who can "sell" the practice. Ultimately, they want another money maker. Show you can earn, and they aren't going to care where you did your residency. The only caveat is they will give the advantage to physicians from the places they have already hired from/worked with.
The point of the previous post was more to show the trap of viewing a list as "impressive" or not based on specialty or location. Residency isn't the end point for many of the physicians on those lists. So how do we know what is impressive? Some people are going to go to that Name program and be miserable. When you see those that hate their life, are you going to say "impressive"? These lists do little more than tell us that students placed into residency. It doesn't say anything about intelligence or capabilities. It really doesn't even say that the school had anything to do with the students' success. Congratulate all those that made it. It's an accomplishment to finish school, and even moreso to have a residency. When you earn your spot, you're going to feel pretty good about yourself... no matter where you are going.
would appreciate a list.
thanks
