I attend an allopathic med school with a very good reputation, etc etc. Anyway, what I've found is that at my school, the profs
give detailed handouts (ie. printed notes) and 70% of the students especially in the first year of med school read no textbook. They just read and study these handouts. Of course, for anatomy students use atlases, and some may read snell or moore, but that's about it. For example, for neuroscience lab, students use an atlas, but for the neuroscience class itself, students go by these stacks of notes given to them.
The students seem to do well enough, and every year the 2nd year do well on step 1. Is this how it is at other allopathic schools?
