Howdy folks. The "developing schools" section gave me an idea: adding a "year founded" column for each school. It would fun and informative to be able to sort the schools by the years they opened. Is this a viable idea that others would support? Or would it introduce complications and controversies? Bryan Hopping T 07:31, 30 July 2008 (UTC)
I added the state names for each school since the rowspan feature makes the table unsortable. (See Wikipedia:Wikitable#Sorting). Cmcnicoll ( talk) 00:22, 12 February 2010 (UTC)
Any interest in adding another section for former medical schools? I'm not sure how many articles there are on former schools, but one of the schools currently on the developing list is no longer in existence ( Touro University College of Medicine). I think articles on medical schools no longer in existence should be listed somewhere, so why not here? Should a distinction be made between schools that have admitted students and those that have not (maybe in a comments field)? I'll move TouroMed to a new section and we can move it later if there are other suggestions. -- Scott Alter 04:31, 20 February 2010 (UTC)
I have started going through the historical and current medical schools from before 1918, and there were 105 existing and 347 extinct at that time. Should the former medical schools be put in this article, or started on a new one? I think it would be nice to have them all in one article to make page searching easier, and many current medical schools have absorbed the older ones. The only downside is the page will get long. -- Scott Alter 00:54, 2 April 2010 (UTC)
The former medical schools have now been added. As expected, the list is now huge. Normally, I would have created a list like this as its own page; however, with the notes of mergers and former names of existing schools, I think it is beneficial to have all of this information in one place so the page can be searched easily so one can bounce back and forth to trace medical schools' histories. -- Scott Alter ( talk) 20:55, 11 June 2010 (UTC)
I'm not trying to split the page, but we need two lists (and no a one topic editor doesn't need to chime in) I spent the time cleaving the two lists apart because MD and DO are different degrees given out at different schools and have different uses. When 95% of people hear medical school they think MD. I am currently working on getting into a medical school, and I wanted to sort the lists but with out having to look at the osteopathy schools. Also "Allopathic medicine" means nothing, medical school will do. -- 216.67.20.169 ( talk) 18:37, 6 July 2010 (UTC)
can we separate the table into osteopathic medical schools (D.O.) and allopathic medical schools (M.D.)? We can put both schools on this list but just separate them into two different tables. I think this would be more useful. Any objections? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.209.136.246 ( talk) 19:52, 19 March 2012 (UTC)
This list is really long, making it cumbersome to navigate. I think we should split it into two articles, one a list of current and pending US medical schools, and the other a list of defunct US medical schools. That would make it more user-friendly.

When you pack for college you need to have everything so that you dont forget anything that is an essential....make sure to right a list of what you need and check something off every time you put it in your car. You may want to pack up your car a week or two before you are going to leave so that you can double and triple check your stuff. Start buying your stuff for college, about 2 months before you go so that you get everything in time to go. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.75.78.10 ( talk) 21:27, 5 December 2012 (UTC)
The main list needs WP:red links for all the missing schools. Biosthmors ( talk) pls notify me (i.e. {{ U}}) while signing a reply, thx 11:39, 9 October 2013 (UTC)
There should be a column on the table that includes the shortened name of the school. It will be helpful to a lot of people to recognize the school. Usually the names are Shorter than the whole school name so it will not take up a big column. Vishwajraval ( talk) 18:17, 1 May 2014 (UTC) [1].

Some of the schools listed in the table are *for-profit*. Given the large amount of criticism recently about *for-profit* colleges and universities, it may be useful to have a column indicating whether each school is *for-profit* or *not-for-profit*. This would be interesting and germane for typical Wikipedia readers, and genuinely important for potential applicants to medical school. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rjonnal ( talk • contribs) 18:32, 15 August 2016 (UTC)

"Cleveland Clinic Lerner College of Medicine" is not its own med school, merely a pathway through Case Western. All diplomas are through Case Western. 100.40.196.42 ( talk) 10:33, 14 August 2022 (UTC)
The term "allopathic" is no longer considered a derogatory term for MD education. It has mainstream use as evidenced by its usage by the American Medical Association ( [2], [3], [4], etc.), the many articles written by MD physicians that use the word "allopathic" in the title, and the fact that the Kiran C. Patel College of Allopathic Medicine exists. Bait30 Talk 2 me pls? 03:19, 9 March 2023 (UTC)
