I would recommend that you look into KCUMB's curriculum. It is one of the strengths that draws students to its school and helps them do well on boards. This is a brief description from the school's website:
Curriculum Philosophy
The purpose of the curriculum is to advance the mission of the University and College in preparing its graduates to be highly competent osteopathic physicians. To that end, an enhanced curriculum was implemented in August 2000 (beginning with the Class of 2004). This curriculum eliminates the artificial separation of the basic and clinical sciences, integrating all essential concepts and information into a seamless continuum of clinical presentations. The foundations of anatomy, biochemistry, epidemiology, genetics, immunology, medical ethics, microbiology, osteopathic principles and practices, pathology, pharmacology, physiology, and the clinical disciplines of internal medicine, pediatrics, family medicine, surgery, Ob/Gyn and psychiatry are incorporated into clinical presentations covering all diseases physicians will encounter during day-to-day practice. New concepts such as health-care policy, medical informatics and health and wellness are integrated into the curricular structure.
This patient-centered curriculum prepares students to begin analyzing and integrating medical information in a format used by medical practitioners. This curriculum approach integrates the basic and clinical sciences from the first day of medical school, eliminating the former postponement of meaningful clinical decision making until the third year of medical school.
Teaching Methods
A variety of teaching and learning methods are used in the first two years. These methods include classroom lectures, laboratory exercises, small group discussions, computer-assisted instruction, specialized workshops, the use of standardized patients and other simulated clinical activities.
