I know that a few years ago NYCPM was offering this dual degree, what ever happened to it? Does any school still offer it?

NYCPM did not offer the degree. NYCPM had an articulation agreement with some international medical school that did distance learning to grant the MD degree. Only one person in the history of the program graduated and got a residency (because her parents were doctors at a hospital and pulled strings). The program is no longer in exsistance because many people were just being taken for their money.

I do not think any schools offer this anymore.

It kind of makes you wonder why NOVA is trying that "DO/DPM" degree. I'd be willing to bet that it will meet the same fate.

I agree w/ that. To me the dual degree makes no sense; 7 years of school and tution to learn the same thing twice.
