So today was round one, yay us.

There’s a big emphasis this year to not contact programs during rounds. But, if you haven’t heard back from a program, what are you going to do?

I know last year the upperclassmen were contacting the programs and because of their persistence, they were able to receive offers. But, I don’t know if this year contacting the programs will just annoy them.

Contacting programs who don't want to be contacted will annoy them. Worst cases are they don't rank you and remember you come time for CASPR, or that we lose Clerkship programs who don't want the headache of being bombarded by students told not to contact them.

I have a few programs that are still listed as, "requested" on the dpmclerkship website. Is that basically a rejection?

Hope everyone got the rotations that they wanted!
