The curriculum at KCU is rigorous. It's systems based. First year is learning all of the anatomy, phys, embryo, histo of all systems in normal function with the year rounding out with some patho and micro. Second year is when pharm and path are really integrated into the systems. OMM is fairly decent and I think 3-4 hours of lecture is involved.
KCU is really getting involved in expanding their research (they expect to have a full PhD program in the biomedical science in around 5 years, hired some investigators with decent NIH funding that is neurological research). The deans of the two KC MD schools (KU MedCenter and UMKC SOM) have made an effort with our Dean to expand medical research and community engagement that focuses on collaborative effort between the three schools.
I'd say the biggest downfall for KCU is that their class size (270) makes for some variable clerkship rotation quality and having the potential for having to move elsewhere for 3rd year.
