I am actually trying to make a similar decision, hence resurrecting the thread.
I know the difference between DO vs MD, I dont really care which degree I end up getting since I want to do pediatrics and both match well enough. I shadowed both kinds of doctors and found that the degree type doesnt matter, it mostly depends on how awesome the actual doctor is, go figure.
i want to know which bms program Midwestern (az) vs Rosalind Franklin will actually try and help me & support me to get into their medical school vs try and weed me out.
I have visited both schools and both are really strong in my book and I have some other great offers from other schools smp progs:
AT still- so beyond nice & i dont mind being in the boonies of missouri but it is 2yrs and im an older medical school applicant
Pcom- also two years
john hopkins biotech ms (not the bms)- now not gonna lie i love the idea of this school but this program is not made for kids who want to go into medical school its made to earn a biotech masters. I already have a masters (MPH- Loma Linda) & it is partly online & through satellite campuses. I could get this and basically use it to name drop and reapply to medical school or stick to an smp prog where the goal is med school.
i am having a very hard time deciding which program is aimed to help vs get money out of me and any advice would be beyond appreciated.
Thanks Guys!
