I'm a bit confused about DO residencies and I'm hoping someone will be able to help.
Do most of the people who enter DO school just assume that they will also have to take the USMLE and COMLEX? If I was interested in specialties like dermatology or urology would I take both tests or can my scores for USMLE be used for both programs??
And then when it comes time to apply, does everyone pursuing competitive specialties apply both MD and DO residencies if they want a strong chance of getting in?
