Thats BS I am currently a med student. I have friends who are chiropractors. They did not take pharmacology and the courses they were taught were not in the detail as were expected of me in med school. While in chiro school they have lotsa time for fun. I study my arse off constantly. I have no free time!!

No, it's not to the level of deatil of med school. Chiro's in their work don't require much of the detail that MD's do, certainly not pharmacology (why would they need that?). And MD's don't learn much of what chiro's learn. I know a bit about this as my fiancee is a chiropractor and my two brothers are MD's.

My point in the earlier post is that chiropractic school is not some degree you're handed in 6 months - it's not massage school. They learn what they need to do their jobs well, just as MD's do.

Listen, nobody has all the answers. Try to have an open mind.
