Yes, the requirements to get into a school of osteopathic medicine are typically lower (MCAT scores of 25-26 instead of 29-30), you still have to be a very smart individual to gain acceptance.
Not really. I have several friends who are in DO school. They were the average chemistry and biology majors who would have gone to any MD school in the nation but no one would take them. There are 138 MD schools in this country. If you can't get in to one of those, I don't want a less intelligent DO operating on me.

In many cases, a D.O. will treat you in the exact same manner that an M.D. would.
Sure they will treat me the same way. But the quality of that treatment and their overall intelligence in the event that something goes wrong is what I care more about.
