Seems like if I am not applying for MD/PhD but I say I like a school for its research it doesnt really make sense. Do regular MD people have opportunities for research also?

You will get asked, why not MD/PhD?
I did research in undergrad and I found it interesting. I'd like to do research in the medical field though. I feel I am prepared to talk about it if I was asked, but that it isn't the main component of my application. It just makes me a more well-rounded applicant.
Let me clarify my previous post:Agreed. At an internal interview at my UG school, I sang abt my research experiences only to be asked if I considered the MD/PhD route. Umm, because I don't think it's worth it for me to spend the extra 4-5 years for a degree I don't really care about??
Yeah, so it's great to talk about your research -- just think about your reasons why you don't want the PhD and be able to communicate them with confidence, unlike yours truly.
