I was looking at Western's Match List and there weren't any ENT(Ear Nose Throat) matches last year. Do you guys know of any osteopathic schools that have matched with an ENT specialty?

Just score a 260. I'm sure you can match then, lists be damned!
Score a 200 and I don't care what school you are from, it's gonna be an uphill battle!

If you're talking ACGME programs, only one DO matched in 2008. I'm uploading a .doc that shows the breakdown of all PGY-1 positions over the last couple of years. But, you can find tons of data at: http://www.nrmp.org/data/index.html Keep in mind that here are currently 19 DO only programs available as well. Do a search here:http://opportunities.osteopathic.org/search/
FYI, here's a DO ENT faculty member at the University of Washington -affiliated Childrens Hospital: http://www.seattlechildrens.org/our_services/find_physician/detail.aspx?id=41442. He went to DMU (years ago) and did military residency.
I was just at TCOM for an interview and they gave us a sheet with a breakdown of all their 2008 matches and they had ENT on there! I am pretty sure DMU had some on their lists as well.
PCOM, CCOM, KCUMB, DMU ... etc always have ENT/facial plastics on their match lists. There are only around 19 AOA spots, and unfortunately matching on the ACGME side is just about as competitive as integrated PRS so it's 250+, jr AOA, heavy research etc ... for all MD candidates. It's competitive either way ...

Just so you know, I posted the url to the search page several posts earlier. You can't post a search url because it expires. When you click on your link you get an error, then it goes to the same place place I posted.
