May 13, 2020Wednesday AOA Staff Contact AOA Staff Facebook Twitter LinkedIn Email U.S. News & World Report ranked four osteopathic medical schools on its annual list of the best medical schools for primary care. In 2019, U.S. News stopped ranking med schools in some categories that DO schools have historically ranked highly in, including rural medicine and geriatrics. To put together the primary care rankings, U.S. News relied on surveys it gathered from most med schools as well as test scores, average GPA and the number of students entering primary care specialties upon graduation. How a given med school was rated by other med schools and residency program directors factored significantly into where it landed on the list. Learn more about the ranking methodology here.
