I graduated from Windsor medical school and failed to match into residencies two years in a row. My time in the Caribbean islands combined with my experience in the residency trail has allowed me to absorb a lot of information about Caribbean medical schools. I've met SGU, Ross, AUC, AUA, St. James etc. students and grads...I've heard their complaints and their praises.
This thread is for those people whose stats are too low to get into a US MD/DO school. My first advice is to not join any offshore school, especially now with the upcoming residency crunch. However if you still insist on trying your luck at a US residency from a Caribbean medical school or if you plan on practicing in another country, then I can help you out in this thread. Several Caribbean medical school grads have set up comfortable practices in African and Middle Eastern countries and never had to take the USMLE or participate in the NRMP.
Again, my primary advice is for you to stay stateside. However if you absolutely insist on applying to Carib schools, then maybe I can at least help you avert some major disasters.
