Publication Type: Abstract Abstract: Objective: The purpose of the present study was to compare the performance of pharmacy students and osteopathic medical students in a combined sequence of courses in medical pharmacology. Methods: The lecture-based pharmacology courses were presented to students in the Chicago College of Pharmacy (n=202) and the Chicago College of Osteopathic Medicine (n=162) over three 10-week quarters during the 2006-2007 academic year. Student performance in each quarter was evaluated by four multiple choice examinations and student grades were based on the percentage of correct answers on each exam. The mean percentage grades of the two groups of students were analyzed by Kruskal-Wallis non-parametric ANOVA and Dunn's multiple comparison test. Results: During the first quarter of the course, the average grade of the pharmacy students (83.0±7.9) was significantly (p <0.001) lower than that of the medical students (87.3±5.5). However, during the second and third quarters, the performance of the pharmacy students improved significantly (p < 0.001). By the end of the spring quarter, the average grade of the pharmacy students was only slightly lower (i.e. < than 1% point) than that of the medical students. A retrospective analysis of student performance during years 2001-2006 revealed similar trends. Implications: These results show that, in an appropriate curriculum, pharmacy students can perform at academic levels comparable to those of medical students. This is significant in light of the current trend of established medical schools developing new colleges of pharmacy.
