Hey Guys I was wondering if there is a list somewhere of the DO programs that interview without doing an audition rotation. Provided that you have a great step 1 score. If not can we start one here?

I'd like to know them as well plus whether or not there is a cut-off board score to get that invite.

Received interviews from Good Sam in Corvallis, Garden city, UMDNJ, St. Johns, NY program, OK state and did not rotate at any of them. UMDNJ was a waste of time (they wanted rotators), others were more accepting

I'm assuming you had stellar board scores?

Was this info from last year? UMDNJ's first interview date isn't until later in October.

It was a few years ago. Unless things changed with UMDNJ I should have taken my application off the table at the interview, pissed on it, then given it back to them, because I basically wasted a trip out there. They wanted me to come back for a week, come to journal clubs or come to fracture conference. I don't think they understood that I was in the middle of other rotations and did not have endless amounts of money to stay in NJ for a week. The other programs have had residents that did not rotate out there, got good feedback from them.
