cool this would also continue our quest for message board domination and make us one step closer to the 'general residency forum'.

Man. I didn't match last time and had to scramble (into FP).
I am optimistic (how could I not be after spending close to 3000 bucks going to interviews and pissing off my current program) but I still dread Monday the 13th when I may get the "Sorry, you didn't match" Email.
I've got a backup plan tooo horrible to contemplate but I hope I don't have to implement it.

British website listing about 8 schools: http://www.osteopathy.org.uk/careers/osteo_courses.php
Seems that I saw on another thread that in UK it is not considered equivalent to med school. Don't know whether they can prescribe, operate, etc.
BKN said:
Nope - bone/osteopathy ONLY - more like homeopathy/naturopathy. Not equivalent to MBBS/MBBCh.

BKN said:
They're like PT/Chiro, not full physicians like US-trained DOs
Thanks for the clarification guys.. Countdown WOO HOOO!!

Oooh! I hadn't worked mine out to days...looks like I'm down to 83 (but keep in mind that my residency program starts about a week into June 😱 )
EctopicFetus said:
err Wednesday. But if you get them in on Tuesday thats cool too.
Yeah you are right.. i got ahead of myself since I certified.. Whoops!
EctopicFetus said:
I thought you were just trying to be a pal and make sure we all had a comfortable buffer in case the web died or something.
Well yeah that too..🙂
EctopicFetus said:
yeah haha better than me. talking to some friends I said 'man the rank lists is due thursday, at which point I got some feedback 🙂.

Something like that actually happened the year my undergrad switched to course requests being submitted online (it was this really complicated system that was supposed to make things fair for the underclassmen). They had to extend the deadline because too many people didn't have their lists in. I wouldn't count on the NRMP doing the same thing!!
FYI people.. I assume your school told you guys the same thing mine did.. dont wait to the last minute apparently the servers can get overwhelmed and well... you dont want to ruin your life.
My husband's AMCAS app was frozen for 3 weeks due to server "error" - lovely. Never underestimate the powers-that-be FORGETTING how many people actually apply every year! 😀
Good luck everyone!
Hey, it's tomorrow! One more day down 🙂
