Do you feel adequately taught in OMM to perform on fellow classmates?
 
1. Do you get any clinical experience in a major hospital before 3rd year?

2. Is it hard to find research? Is there a lot of research going on at your school?

3. What specialty, if any, are you currently interested in?
 
1) which DO school do you go to? I u derstand if you want to keep that private 🙂

2) did you start studying for Complx 1? If so, at what point did you start? What resources are you using? How many hours?

3) What did you do during the summer between year 1 and year 2? Study? Reserach? Or just chill?

It was a mixture of factors that helped me choose; The school I was accepted at had a deadline 1 month after my acceptance for my decision, while the other 2 interviews weren't scheduled yet, so I figured I would go with the safe option.

However, the decision was easier because it turned out to be one of situations where you feel like it is just fate, and that you belong at the school. I felt really welcome there from the start and just like it was where I belonged.

You made an awful decision.
 
Do you really feel the merger is going to impact DO students significantly enough that you couldnt match EM?

1. I wouldn't say that we get "major" experience, but we do get significantly more clinical time as 1st and 2nd year goes on. We work in the OMT clinic a couple times a semester and practice writing our notes for those patients, and we have mandatory primary care and specialty shadowing days a few times a semester 2nd year as well. I have performed procedures on patients during these days.

2. I won't lie and say that there is research for everyone, because there isn't. But there are 5 or 6 projects that you can apply to work on at any given time. Only about half of those are basic science research. I have friends who have gotten to do case reviews for doctors they have worked with shadowing that they will be authors on though.

3. Right now emergency medicine, but I can also see myself being happy with family medicine if the merger ends up hurting DO specialty chances.

What would you say is your success rate for OMT in the OMT clinic? What percent of incoming patients leave with symptoms relieved only from OMT?
