I could be wrong, but as I understand, DO students that take the USMLE don't have their USMLE scores reported to their schools automatically. Therefore, a DO school has no way of knowing how their students do on the USMLE unless the students report the scores voluntarily to the school.

The NBME has global data for all DO student takers, not broken down by school. But that doesn't really matter. If you'll do well, you'll do well regardless of which school you attend. I know it's easier to "blame" a school for your failure/success, but unfortunately that's not how real life works. You're in control.

There are numerous threads dealing with this issue (many of them quite *ahem* entertaining to read).

The latest data (2006) can be found here: http://www.usmle.org/scores/2006perf.htm

There's also data from previous years. As you can see, the data can be used to justify almost anything you want, and can be fodder for lively discussion. Enjoy.
