The amount of AMGs is still 9,000 less than residency spots. I understand that school expansion is faster than ever right now, but won't it just ultimately push IMGs out? Even if there are 10 new DO and MD schools opening in the next 5 years with an avg. of 200 students and no new residency spots, there will still be 7,000 more residency spots than AMGs.
"In addition to U.S. allopathic seniors, 2,949 osteopathic medical school students and graduates submitted program preferences for this year’s Match, an increase of more than 200. Their match rate to first-year positions rose to 79.3 percent, the highest ever."
What happens to the rest of the DOs if there is only an 80% NRMP match rate? Do they wait until the next cycle?
