Not true. Highest rejection rate was OFP with a 100% rejection rate 😅Wow who would have thought Exodontia would tie with the highest rejection rate
Or perhaps just a mass exodus of LTs 🤔best way to squeeze the most payback from an OS
There was a rule implemented starting this DUINS cycle that if your PRD does not line up with the start of the AY then you could not apply. They are not cutting orders short. This is why endo went from 20 applicants last cycle to just 8 this cycle. Could explain so many ENS being selected.

You need to verify with a school that they can accept military residents. Some of these programs have institutional or graduate medical education funding restrictions that prevent them from accepting military residents. Good luck!
