What programs absolutely require that you take the UMSLE? Also, where are some programs that are not DO friendly? I just took the COMLEX, and was wondering where I should cross off my list, and where I can keep? Thanks!!
 
uhs-
As a 4th year DO student, I would tell you that you shouldn't cross any place off your list. I scored very well on Step I, and got about 50% or maybe a little higher success rate on interviews (40 or so applications, 20+ offers). I know some other DOs who got interview offers at places I did not. There is no "list" of places that only access USMLE as far as I know, and besides, as a DO we are the underdog, REMEMBER THAT, and just apply to as many places as you can.
