Recently at NSU COM we conducted a debate that many osteopathic students go through in deciding whether to take the USMLE or not. Please follow the links to view the discussion. The two physicians in the video are
Robert Hasty, D.O., FACOI (Palmeto General IM Program Director) and Joshua Lenchus, D.O., FACP (UM IM Residency Associate Program Director).

I have also included the link to the survey that was referenced in the video: http://www.surveymonkey.com/sr.aspx?sm=saIZUMk8HDW7wduqJka_2bhoVpCK_2bQ5wCezn8aJycZBIs_3d

They both freaking rock for doing that. Would it be ok to share this with the clubs at our school?

We got an email with these videos and the survery results from my school who received it from NSU. The one thing I was wondering was is there more than 56 ppl in the graduating class? I thought it was interesting that only 56 ppl responded overall. What happened to the rest of the class? I'm just curious because we have over 270 students in my class. Still it's really great to see ppl in the osteopathic world put something like this together.

Haha, I'm quite sure there are more than 56 people in the graduating class. Towards the beginning of the first video Dr. Hasty said only a little less than a 1/3 of the class responded, and it seems like he sent out the survey on a Saturday and gave the talk on a Monday or Tuesday, so I'm not sure how much time was given to respond. Either way, its good to see some real world numbers.

Thanks again, NovaMedStudent!!

Dr Hasty is like the coolest guy you'll ever meet.
 
I only got to see parts 1 through 4. Any way to put up the other parts? Anyone download them?

They both seem like great professors. Kudos to NSUCOM.
 
Well, it seems that all of them are down. That's unfortunate.
 
Can someone summarize the vids for those of us who missed them? Thanks.
 
Too bad all the videos have been taken down. What's their title? I want to watch 'em.
