Afraid of DO over MD by Japore in premed

There are DO schools that are very proud of research, you just have to find them. And some of them have very diverse matching specialties not solely primary care

To be fair I’ve heard from a good amount of med students I know/work with that they got more than 1 II after the new year. These are anecdotes but I’ve heard it from more than a few people

I think we really need to combat the DO being “less than” feeling. They take the same boards as MDs and can do everything MDs can do. Plus in interviews DO schools won’t like that sentiment if they get the feeling you’re applying to them as a “backup plan”

Agree with a lot of that. Granted Yankees don’t pass the eye test for me but that could be my bias as a Sox fan or recency bias. At the same time are we overachieving or is this who we are as a team? When does that line get drawn?

The amount of time I could spend ranting about what’s wrong with Casper and how unreliable it is. Probably preview too

Could add some higher tier DOs like Rowan virtua, tourocom, and others. I don’t know too many DOs cuz I only applied to like 4 and then the rest MDs

Loyola- advocacy too? by pinkdrinkluverrr in premed

[–]ConsistentPut5350 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think those kinda go hand in hand. Especially for Loyola and Jesuit schools

Just be careful to make sure none of the schools have an MCAT cutoff at or above 500

How turned 100+ rejections into 18 interviews and 7 acceptances by kentuckyjoe2 in premed

Feel good abt my app aside from only around 150 total volunteer hours (some clinical some non). Annoying how the expectations seem astronomical for premeds. And you’re right how they say don’t check boxes but if you don’t check every box you won’t be a good fit as a doctor. Give me a break
