Like somebody said before, this school is a money-making-machine. They don't care about you but your money. If you ever need something from them they will first check your balance to see if you owe them anything before helping you.
Why should you believe what I'm saying? Well, I attended that school for one and a half year until I had enough of it and decided to quit.
Professors are REALLY bad. They often forget what they are teaching or they often give you the material erroneously (sometimes you or other med students end correcting them). Some of them are students that just recently graduated from there and went teaching so go figure.
Labs are totally under-equipped and badly maintained.
You have very little amphitheater (cadaver) practice time and that's only until you have reached the 4th semester.
Very little surgical practices too. You just operate on a tiny rabbit ONCE (this is different from the many rabbits, frogs and dogs you kill, yea KILL, in the physiology lab) in the 4 years you study there.
You can easily have good grades by doing easy essays and power point presentations because those essays and presentations have a weigh of 40-60% of your grade while the rest is divided between the written exam (50-30%) and 10% participation or attendance. So if you like to study hard and really learn the material you will get highly disappointed to see that your fellow classmates, with a very aesthetically pleasant power point presentation and 30 minutes of studying prior to the exam, will get them further than your 4 days of hard studying.
And now that we are speaking about exams, ALMOST ALL of your fellow classmates CHEAT in those exams in so many ways you wouldn't have ever imagined. They even do so in the face of the teacher (most of those teachers don't really care if you cheat or not, some of them even laugh at it when a student is caught red handed). And if you try to denounce this, you will find deaf ears and a very angry group of fellow classmates when they learn that you blew the whistle.
Even with all the cheating going on people still fail to pass classes and so they have to take second chance exams (called extraordinary exams) which sometimes they fail again and have to re-take the class. If they pass these second chance exams they are allowed to continue even if they just barely passed them. I'm telling you this because I want you to realize, that those students that barely made it to the next course after cheating and taking a second chance exam, will be out later on attending a real person. So imagine what kind of medical service will those persons give? In other words, this school is playing with people's lives with out any regards to it.
Teachers also have favoritism to some students. This means that if you manage to make friends with a professor, or you are a girl and a male professor considers you attractive, you wont have any problems passing his or her class with little or no effort.
On the other hand, if you are hated or not liked by a professor you will have a very hard time trying to pass the class.
They have a unique curriculum made in such a way that if you decide to quit their school you wont be able to transfer the classes you took to another school be it in the U.S. or in Mexico itself because of this non-standard system.
I discussed all of those issues directly with the director of the school of medicine and he just totally ignored me. He said, in his own words, that "this is the way the school works and if you don't like it you can quit." And so I did.
After that, I decided to study hard on my own to get acceptance at WAY more prestigious university which I successfully did, and what a difference!!!
The only thing I regret was not doing that earlier in first semester when things started to look disappointing.
So if you are considering this school to get your medical education, please look elsewhere. It is a big waste of time, effort, and money. Unless of course the only thing you are looking for is to get your medical degree with as little effort as possible and without lerning, in which case this is the school for you.
