If you look on past threads, this "DO school vs MD school" is a topic that is beaten to death on SDN; the sentiment on here seems to be to always choose the MD school. Keep in mind that both these programs are fantastic and they each graduate successful physicians, but I think as a student who is in between the two it is important you choose the philosophy that you are most in tune with. Are you interested primarily in academic medicine? Or do you hope to be a pure clinician? Do you have an interest in OMM? Do you like the different take on medicine an osteopathic school offers? Are you worried that your chances at a big name residency will be decreased by the medical degree you have? Both medical schools will teach you basically the same material, but its up to you to determine which of these slight differences will help you become the physician YOU want to be.
As a gap year student who has pondered the same question for a very long time, I will attest that it is not an easy decision to make (especially if you're a student choosing a DO degree over the MD degree). It takes a lot of self reflection, but if you have time, I recommend talking to MD and DO physicians you personally know and also doing some research about the two professions and why two distinct professions of medicine exist in the first place.
Although I am still considering/awaiting offers, I personally lean towards the DO degree. I love this quote from Dr. Atul Gawande in "Being Mortal", which I believe resonates with the fundamental philosophy of osteopathic medicine. It reads "If to be human is to be limited, then the role of caring professions and institutions-from surgeons to nursing homes- ought to be aiding people in their struggle with those limits. Sometimes we can offer a cure, sometimes only a salve, sometimes not even that. But whatever we can offer, our interventions, and our risks and the sacrifices they entail, are justified only if they serve the larger aims of a person's life. When we forget that, the suffering we inflict can be barbaric. When we remember it the good we can do can be breathtaking."
But whats even more important is that you got into two great medical schools! Congratulations! What you have is an opportunity that not many pre-medical students have. Go and live life before its taken away from you by a decade of graduate and post-graduate training. Regardless of what you choose, I hope we can both look forward to becoming fellow colleagues and soldiers on battlefields of human medicine
