What, you have an MD/DO?

 

[Jongho Yoon]

Uhh don't really see the point to your question but yes it is certainly a graduate degree.

The M.D., D.D.S., J.D., Pharm.D., O.D., D.O., D.V.M., D.P.M are professional degrees. Graduate degrees are M.S., Ph.D. and variations thereof.

Farantino,

UHH , what do you think PhD stands for? DOCTOR of Philosophy. PhD is also a Doctorate degree. You are correct in that MS and PhD are Graduate degrees, but a much better explanation is what Doc Toothache posted.

What should I put physician's status as on AADSAS then? there is no option such as professional degrees. I'm confused.

If there is no space for professional degree, then list it under the graduate degree. Typically, professional degrees aren't referred to as graduate degrees, but technically they are. It is more of an ego thing why people try to separate themselves from graduate degrees. The British classify all their doctorate level degrees as graduate level training.

So, list it under graduate school!
