Im really excited about attending D.O school next year, but Im concerned with one thing. I can deal with the discrimination that exists within the medical community and the residency programs when it comes to getting accepted into more competitive specialties, Im also fine with taking USMLE in addition to COMLEX; but is it true that because of OMT D.O schools are harder than MD schools? If this is true, it really concerns me that D.O student have to work harder and acquire higher grades to compete against MD students (even though the curriculum is more difficult), only to be discriminated against at the end. Please share your thoughts.
