As the Arabs say, "Inshallah."

Does it make anyone else's day when you check your alerts and its a quote from Goro. That when we all make it in life.

I bet most were AOA trained, since there are a lot of AOA orthopedic surgery residencies. However, if you look at the NRMP match, it is extremely difficult for DO students to match. To top it all off the amount of audition rotations on the DO side can limit ones chances in match, since most DO residencies take students who rotate with them. I also remember places looking for people with rather good level I scores as well. You could put in the border of practical, but it isn't practical though.

This is what I found from the NMS:

Can't really make heads or tails of the data, but it shows pg. 20 that ortho is on the higher end of competitiveness. I wish they gave a percentage though of how many match.

Awesome, thanks for explaining.

For EM USC is a great school. Their ER sees a lot... a prestigious school in the middle of the ghetto

A kid from RVUCOM is an EM resident at UCLA's Ronald Reagan Medical Center.

The program's public policy has to align with the ACGME's stated policy. It's naive/disingenuous to think that this represents an actual policy change.
