Going to a Carib school today, is NOT the same as going to one ten or fifteen or twenty years ago. Back then, it was an okay option because there was less competition from DO and MD schools (there weren’t that many DO schools, and MD schools weren’t increasing any class sizes and barely opening new schools). Fast-forward to today, it’s a different game (MANY new DO schools, MD schools, and class expansions, WITHOUT a significant increase in residency spots). You will most likely not match into residency from a Carib school, at least the specialty of your choice, even FM. I’ve worked with plenty of Carib graduates who all say it was an up-hill battle for them. Carib grads of twenty or more years past, are NOT the same grads of today. Please do not ruin your future by going to Carib today. Even five years ago??? Eh, maybe I could have suggested it, but not today, it’s getting harder and harder for Caribs to match.
