Fact or Fiction? 33% to SOAP?

Rumor has it a for profit and newer DO program matched around 67% of their students this year. Any idea if this is true and which school it could be?

I cannot confirm the accuracy, but the school was mentioned in the first page of the DO Match list thread
DO Match List Thread 2021

Fact. And you will never get the school to confirm it because a SOAP position is still a Match so the final match rate is inflated. All schools report their numbers this way.

This. Pretty sure even the most established schools are probably SOAPing 10-15+% of their class this year.

we only had like 7%. i'm curious how that compares to the really old ones.

Wouldn't surprise me in the least. RVU.UT seems to be the culprit

The md school associated with where I am soaped like 15% I would image it’s much higher at every DO school in comparison.

I don't get how it is possible that every DO school SOAPed 10-15% if the overall pre-SOAP match rate is ~90% according to NRMP?

Bc it’s not. There’s no way my school hit 10%.

I suspect that the match rates will be similar to previous years (with the exception of the global 2% match rate drop for both USMD and DOs), but I imagine that the bulk of unmatched DOs will heavily skew towards newer DO programs with the more established ones continuing to put up good numbers.

I know of at least one person from the mentioned school that did not match or soap and is working odd and end jobs for a year till they can try again.

Thanks for the responses everyone, fortunate to have been accepted at a more well established program, though of course that far from precludes me from the work necessary to earn a residency spot in four years.

Couldn't help my curiosity about such a program, honestly I thought it might have been Burrell before i had a little more info.

You mean the global 0.9% drop for MDs and the 1.6% drop for DOs. New! Press Release: NRMP Delivers Strong Residency Match During Uncertain Times - The Match, National Resident Matching Program

the programs that place well will let you know quickly. I am not sure any DO school has had 100% placement this year.
