Average GPA for Osteopathic Schools

[deleted654432]

After doing lots of research about DO Schools, it seems to be that the average GPA is around a 3.5 and < 30 MCAT score, which is significantly lower than the averages for MD schools. Why is this? Im aware that MD's and OD's have the same credibility once graduating, so why is it less difficult to get in a DO school?

Because we are all dumb and DO is a joke. Is that the answer you wanted to hear?

Trolling is getting lazy around here.

You obviously didn't do much research. Also, it's not significantly lower than MD.
Get out and stay out.

Many of these are out-dated and some averages are even higher at the moment.
