Here's an interesting fact, and something that might motivate more into the DO match...
In the 2007 match, only 6 positions each remain unmatched in the NRMP match for OB/GYN and EM. An awful lot of US seniors will be looking to scramble into those programs, starting tomorrow. By way of contrast, 26 EM and 20 OBGYN spots remain unfilled in DO programs. This year at least, DOs would have had a natural advantage. Maybe the quality and geographic location isn't ideal, but at least DOs have more flexibility in going into a specialty of choice.
Does anyone know whether MD graduates can scramble into DO-training programs? Would they still be BC/BE?
