Hi,

Many premed and med students debate MD versus DO. I wanted opinions from residents as far as if there really are any disadvantages to going to a DO school at this time since AOA and ACGME residencies are getting combined. What has been your experience?
 
Don't count on the residency positions combining anytime soon, or even within the next decade.
