Osteopaths and orthodox medical practitioners have received a similar basic medical education. GCE'A' level science passes to university entrance level are required before acceptance to an accredited college. Anatomy, physiology and pathology are all studied and the pre-clinical course, similar to that at orthodox schools, teaches students to examine all the systems in the body in order body in order to make a conventional clinical diagnosis. The osteopathic student however receives more advanced training in the detailed examination of the musculo-skeletal system and in the mechanics of the body and he, or she, develops the manual skills necessary for diagnosis and treatment. It costs £65,000 to train an Osteopath.
