Does it kill you a little bit inside when someone, say, not-so-bright makes it into your D.O. school (or any D.O. school for that matter)? This acquaintance of mine from my college was bragging he made into a certain NYC D.O. school with his 3.0 cGPA and a "relatively decent MCAT score for DO schools." He personally didn't tell me his science GPA or MCAT, but his friends said he received a 26 MCAT. I kid you not, his nickname is college was "the spacey dum****" by about 5-10 of his closest friends and his younger brother. In fact, he says he was originally forced into medicine because of parental pressure, who are both in surgery. However, now he's warmed up to the idea. Not trying to put down D.O. students with low scores, because my scores weren't all that hot either but honestly, this guy breezed by copying homework off of friends and his fiance. The worst part is that his friends (who applied and got into med school) have the worst conception of my D.O. school now because he and I will be going to the same place (hopefully, they don't hate on the degree). It irks me a little because his friends are some of my good friends. How do you deal?
