my brothers cousins friends ex girlfriend thinks DOs arent real doctors???? should I go carib instead? I am worried about how people in society perceive me. I want my ferrari (the one I get from practicing at least 2 years of course) to be noticed by the community as I stroll into my brain surgery clnic (DOs can specialize right?). also would like have to my own TV show called dr. smalls where I make up random facts and tell people they're super legit. will being a DO affect my ability to do these things? (also want lots of women, im worried women only go for MDs not DOs this true ladies????).

thanks for ur help gais
Actually Cole, I'd recommend skipping the Caribbean and going straight to consuming massive amounts of Cracker Jacks. That's the only place they're handing out MD licenses these days. :laugh:

yeah, do school = bad idea.
you're going to be a permanent outcast, walking around the hospital with your head bowed down and eyes averted in shame.
the county morgue doesn't even want you as a pathologist.
elsewhere you will live in constant fear that the end-stage comatose patient in room 109 might one day discover your real medical degree and scream in horror.
your nights will be filled with envy that the dude from ross gets to call himself an md and tell all his neighbors he's an md, and you can't.
your minimum wage salary will go to buying duct tape to cover up the initials that you despise so much.
surely the do degree shall follow you all the days of your life and you will dwell in the house of poverty and misery for ever.
get out now while you can.
This.
 
Well, at least it's not like you will be called "Dr. Smallpecker" or something like that. Then you'd be screwed.
 
if you guys arent going to take my post seriously then I am offended. I have some serious problems here.
 
Hot women, cars, tv show of your own still doable if you are a successful DO.
but. but. a lot of top hospitals will close their doors = no academia leaders teach you their ways. : (

It is like becoming a jedi warrior..but you get to train with YODA(or at least have a chance to) if you go for MD. (Yes nerd)
 
You know most DOs end up like this, right?

I recently read an article that stated DO's aren't as proficient in golf as their MD counterparts.

I really want to be a good golfer so I'm deterred from going DO.

Thoughts?
 
Even if you did get the ferrari, nothing would make up for the fact that you will be a lowly DO. Go carib now and save yourself!

I'd only go DC if I could specialize in Podiatry...

I hear you really have to rock USMLE once you are a DC in order to specialize in podiatry......even then the competition is unreal and research with publications are a must. Anything lower than 35 mcat? Dont even try.
 
i'm over this petty argument, im gonna go to dental school and make more than all of you $$$ goodluck surviving obamacare ...

This is true...such a temptation. I hear RVU has a new DO, DDS 5 year program, you should check it out.
