hey for all of the DOs out there, just wanted to see if anyone had any info on PCOM's interview. are there multiple interviewers, do they pimp, etc.? have they taken people who haven't rotated there or have any association with PCOM? also, what other interviews have people gotten DO or Allo? it'd be nice to start a DO interview thread - where and what the experience was like.
no bitters? i guess i'll go first. i've only interviewed at Peninsula, so i don't have much to contribute yet. but this was only for the internship as the residency is not tracked. but if you tell them you're interested in ortho, they have some of the ortho residents come in to the interview. the PD may or may not be there, but the DME is the main interviewer. the interview really varies from person to person. you may get one that is layed back and relaxed without pimping or one that tests your resolve in becoming an orthopedist or physician. so be ready for anything. it all depends which residents are there, what mood the DME is in, etc. from what i hear, you have another interview for the actual ortho residency early during your internship with the PD, residents, and other attendings where you will most likely get pimped and have to read xrays for them. it's quite the gauntlet, but i guess it's worth it if you make it.

i've interviewed at
Millcreek (Erie, PA)
Doctors - Stark County (Massillon, OH)
Ingham (Lansing, MI)
Peninsula (Far Rockaway, NY)

and have the following scheduled
Riverside (Moreno Valley, CA)
Firelands (Sandusky, OH)

If anyone has questions about any of these programs, let me know.

Does anyone know how many spots Firelands has (1 or 2)?

Anyone know if Botsford selected their 4 interns yet? (they interviewed Oct 21st) or if they are hosting another round of interviews?

Botsford picked their 4...the email was sent last week.

I heard that Firelands will never take a female.

Are you in the final Massillion group on Friday?
