3 FTOS and 1 NADDS OMS. Damn

No pedo or ortho, not surprising. Looks like the comp numbers are down too. Looks like every other specialty took only what they need to fill their residency spots in Bethesda, other than OMS.

Endo would typically have selected 5 residents on an even numbered year (4 residents on odd numbered years), but they were directed to only select 3 this year due to the the endo billet cuts.

I know it’s down - I haven’t looked but it seems lower across the board. what I mean is that any fewer and you start having to need to justify having faculty and support staff for a residency at all. At that point it’s cheaper to have the faculty go fill billets somewhere and send the others out service.

Plus I suspect that the patient load wasn’t overwhelming to begin with.

NADDS took me by a huge surprise

That is exactly what I was thinking.

Yeah last one was 4 years ago I think. Must be a lot of people getting out.

What exactly does it mean if you are chosen as an alternate?

What exactly does it mean if you are chosen as an alternate?

Means that if someone drops, you might be able to slot in (if it’s early enough).

I know a guy who got jammed up for legal reasons a month or two before the start date. Now some specialist out there owes this guy for his indiscretions. Another person I know was a Navy alternate but someone in another service branch dropped out 3 weeks prior to the start date and the branch couldn’t fill it. So, they reached out to the Navy and the Navy said we’ll send one of our alternates your way. How often does this stuff happen? I have no idea. But, it definitely happens.

From what I've seen, almost every year someone gets pulled off an alternate list.

Does this happen with a certain specialty more than others? Or just in general?

 

[vellnueve]

no

Does anyone happen to know the average CBSE score for the applicants to OMFS in the Navy?

An OMFS specialty leader said that mid 60s is competitive, but do yourself a favor and prepare for it with a goal of 70+.
