Simple really. Unless any DO can show me otherwise, that in my book provides the reason why the MD program continues to remain superior.
Too bad patients don't come with multiple choice answers. If they did, this theory would hold water.
If high MCAT scores, undergrad science gpa, and board scores made a good physician then WHY ON EARTH would there be 2 years of clinical rotations, internships and residencies to teach us the real "art" of medicine?
