KCU-Joplin (DO) vs Creighton (MD)

[Zibob]

Just wanting some input on which school I should attend. Both schools have really great match lists, but with the recent changes to Step 1, not sure how that will change things. I know people always say choose MD over DO but wanting some more specific input. I most likely want to go into some sort of specialty so probably leaning towards Creighton, but I really liked the feel of both schools and could see myself going to either. KCU-Joplin is cheaper than Creighton and cost of living will be roughly the same I believe. What are your thoughts? Any input would be greatly appreciated!

MD over DO as always

MD over DO as always and even MORESO now with the Step change

I go to KCU and I would go to the MD option in a heartbeat

Take the MD brah, and I say that as a KCU student.

KCU is a great DO program, but you'll be wishing you went MD when you have to spend a weekend punting content to cram for OMM exams.

Brand new teaching hospital and new sim center make the decision even easier. Choose Creighton.
