Hi everyone,

I"m a Vietnamese citizen who held a US bachelor. As I'm applying to medical school this cycle, I'm wondering if there would be any major disadvantage in terms of getting in to residency if I apply DO vs MD. Thank you!

What is your MCAT score? Also please see some other threads, many good answers. Good luck!

I have a 516 MCAT and a 3.8 cGPA. I'm just unsure about the advantage of the MD route compared to DO for international students.
