Hey SDNers,
I'm interested in both MD and DO, primarily because I want to do family practice. I plan on applying to probably 5-6 MD, 4-5 DO schools depending on how my stats end up at the end of this year. One of my primary concerns is tuition costs/scholarships and the amount of debt I will accumulate during medical school. To me it seems that DO schools are much more expensive than MD schools on average, is there any reason behind this? How do DO schools compare on financial aide, are they more generous?
any help would be appreciated,
thanks
