Default Re: be supposed to do

Be supposed to... means be expected to...

For example if you have an appointment with a doctor (at 10 O'clock), the doctor expects you to be on time, so you are supposed to be in his office at 10.

Sometimes "be supposed to" is like "should":
I'm supposed to take two pills a day.
