Any DO schools that have an associated business school, where u may be able to perhaps design ur own program? Or a business school near by?

espbeliever said:kcumb has a do/mba. you do not need the gmat. and you finish both in a total of 4 yrs. it is from a good school - rockhurst.
downsides: like 20-25000 price tag (total amount for the degree)
you have to spend your 3rd yr in kcmo instead of going elsewhere in the country, which still maybe be ok to you.
NRAI2001 said:Wow all in 4 years, thats awesome!!!
It must be a lot of work. Do the business classes interfere with the med classes (interferre as in taking up so much time that u don't have proper time to spend with the med classes)? I think most MD/MBA programs are completed in 5 years, so that the business classes don't take up too much time.
espbeliever said:from my talkings/understanding, it is not that difficult. the schools and clinical rotations all work together to insure there are no conflicts, and most of the mba is during the summer break... its a regular 1 yr program dissolved into 3 yrs...
If you are in a combined program you DO NOT need ot take the GMAT. Usually they will waive that and allow MCAT's to suffice. I haven't heard of one program that makes you take the GMAT but hey, maybe there are some out there.NRAI2001 said:Cool!!!!!!!
Is it difficult to get into? Do u have to take the GREs?
Do you have a link?
THANKS ALOT.

BrettBatchelor said:Yes, its true about the extra year, but as I said earlier, that is the norm.
If you got it alone it could take 2 years. It all boils down to if you think the extra time is worth it to get the degree. Also if you consider all of the summers you give up for your MBA when you could be doing research or internships and such. Summers ~ 1 year.
