In the US if someone says medical student or medical school they either mean a DO or MD. If someone says allopathic, the mean the MD school subsection of medical students. As of last year, MD and DO students go on to the same residencies, the difference lies only in name and the addition of osteopathy (a combination of valid physical therapy and some voodoo techniques) which the majority of DO students don't believe in, and the few that do keep perpetuating the BS forward unfortunately

Thanks for the perspective, my country (Canada) doesn't have DO so it's not something I understand too well. Here, "allopath" seems mostly used as a derogatory term by naturopaths, homeopaths, etc.
