Did anyone ever end up getting a hold of PCOM this cycle? It seems like they changed their name to a Larkin on ERAS/NRMP? I was offered a rotation after the first informal interview but then could never get a hold of anyone in the program, despite them being very nice on the interview.

If you aren't a DO they won't consider you

reapplicant here:( how can i see what programs had R spots available this past cycle? also does that change every year?>> Yup changes every year, there was approximately 7 or 8 when I submitted ERAS and maybe 4-6 that came out from start to end of cycle

this year I think was UCSF, case western, midwestern, UTMB, puerto rico, larkin, pcom georgia, temple, mcg, utah - half of those came out halfway through the cycle

The ones from the start of the cycle: Lark S Miami (not real, reserved for the unpaid research fellow), Case Western, Midwestern, DCC-Flint, UTMB, PR, PCOM, Georgia. Later ones that came out but from the grapevines they only interviewed people that had already signaled earlier in the cycle and/or were reserved for internal as there wasn't any mention of new reapplicants that hadn't originally signaled getting IIs: UCSF, Temple, MCG, NYMC, Wayne State, Utah

p/f step 1 really screwed over DOs. it was all we had to show we were just as good. i think the next 2 classes of DO derms could very well be the last as our previously DO only programs start taking MDs and MD programs continue to screen us out. < I mean now the emphasis will just be on USMLE Step 2 CK. Pass/Fail USMLE Step 1 just started in January and they'll match in 2023-2024. < I think the DO=MD is a social media construct and won't be surprised if PDs think so too. Sure maybe PCOM students but I have rotated at a few DO sites as an MD, it is definitely not equivalent lol

Yo, PCOM WTF > what happened? > looks like they listed their program incorrecty on ERAS and will only be accepting those that have already completed their intern year. Another $26 down the drain after the Honor Health bullshit several days ago.<why do they even have the physicain only option vs. advanced if the program doesn't even accept non-physicians???

Some posts are shown because their comments mention this program.
