I'm having a difficult time deciding on which DO schools to apply to since there is no real stats available or comparison on DO schools. Can someone share how they chose specific DO schools to apply to? Thank you!
1.) Your state schools (1-2 schools)
2.) Private schools (take out the ones where you don't like the area, cost, facilities)
3.) Public school (if you can stand the higher tuition and have great grades or specifically match what the school wants).
