Sumario:Selected items in graduation survey instruments from MD and DO schools were compared using a novel combined approach which revealed meaningful information about career choice. Although the student satisfaction with medical education had remained steady during the past decade for both MD and DO programs, the dissatisfaction with medical programs at time of graduation was different (p < 0.001). The level of unhappiness with career choice was also different (p < 0.001). An analysis of the Year Two Questionnaire, introduced in 2015 by the American Association of Medical Colleges, showed dissatisfaction with career choice in MD programs increased after graduation.
