I know this topic has been brought up before, but I wanted to resurrect it. Have any of the pre-DO/MD or current DO/MD students in these forums completed an MPH before applying to medical school? If so, did the fact that you had an MPH make a difference in your getting accepted/not accepted?
I think the osteopathic philosophy blends well with the prevention-oriented approach of public health, and was wondering if anyone else thinks likewise. I am currently pursuing an MPH, and plan to apply to medical school this summer. I find myself wanting to go the osteopathic route for the reason that I feel the curriculum would allow me to continue thinking preventatively and biopsychosocially about medicine and health.
Any comments?
