I didn't rotate at St. John Oakland or UMDNJ but they both interviewed me.

Replied by on topic I did a 2 week
I did a 2 week rotation at Des Peres (loved it)...I got an invite to interview there. Also, an interview at Grandview (didn't rotate).

Got no love from Mount Clemens, Doctors in Columbus, or PCOM.

Please understand that DO programs will not interview or consider you if you did not spend any face time there. I highly recommend that you pick 1-2 programs that you really like and spend a month each (although, if your school doesn't allow that, 2 weeks is better than nothing). The other option is to do a non-ortho rotation at a program you really like and spend time with the ortho folks (weekends, take call with them, go to am rounds, etc).

Congrats to all that matched...unfortunately, it only gets harder from here.
