I’m currently a junior in high school and my whole life I’ve always wanted to be a doctor. I’ve been looking at direct programs recently and I always wanted to go to a MD program. But now I realized it’s so hard to get in and I know so many smart people who don’t get to these programs. So I started to look into DO programs and I’ve heard they’re easier to get accepted into. Is DO worse than MD? Like are they looked down at?
DO still has stigmas and fewer opporutunities based on my understanding. If you’re doing direct entry, go with MD.
