So i have no DO shadowing and probably wont either. I plan to apply both MD and DO but truly have no preference and i do respect the DO principle. I think i can sort of explain why do based on my major choice in undergrad. i dont know if its worth it to apply to DO without any shadowing or DO...

So I have 2 from MD's (one whom I've shadowed and the other who knows me super well for a long time), a DO whom I have shadowed, my Oral Communications professor who specializes in Medical Communication, and two of my Chemistry profs who know me very well. If 6 is too many, who should I leave out?

Hey guys. I’m reapplying for DO schools this year. I rolled over my application from last year. I did not retake my MCAT as I was happy with my first score so my MCAT score from last year is on my current DO application. Do I need to resend that same score again to AACOMAS so they can see a...

Hi guys. I'm sorry because I can't find information that addresses this exact question. 1. Do you guys feel that if a DO student decides to study for both the USMLE as well as COMLEX that they are at some kind of disadvantage over someone who only had to study for the USMLE or only for the...

So by the end of my senior year of undergraduate school, there were a laundry list of things I wish someone would have told me... - join ONE club and work hard at it - keep a journal, you'll want to remember all those memories - don't just stick to one group of friends, branch out - get a job...
