I would stick to the Big 3.
Who do you consider to be big 3?
SGU, Ross and AUC
or
SGU, Ross and Saba
or
Harvard, Stanford and Brown
Or
Finch, U of C Irvine or ???
First of all if you can get into a US or Canadian school go....
If not, then you can try at Ross, SGU, Saba or AUC.
Bang for the buck, I would rank
Saba, SGU and Ross
Being around for 20 yrs...
SGU, Ross and AUC
Accept in all 49 states not includ Texas (b/c none are accredited in Texas at the moment, it is based on a individual basis)
SGU, Ross and Saba ok AUC
THe past 2 yrs Saba has had very good scores on USMLE, ave tends to be around 220, partially do to Kaplan review course and the Shelf exams.
Just do your research and then decide where you want to go? But do your research and decide where you want to go? What you would like as a residency? ie. FP... Saba is probably a better choice, b/c low tuition (which will not last for long... more then likely) and scores. But don't feel that you can't get a more competitive residency if you attend Saba.... Saba gives you the same chance as SGU, Ross and AUC. You need to focus and be driven to attain your goal. YEs, people will tell you look at the past matches of each school...... Sure if saba may get 1-3 competitive matches, while Ross and SGU get 10 but then look at the size of the classes.... in a year Saba graduates 90-130 students, while Ross and SGU maybe (estimate) 600 - 800 students per year. Of course if you have more people applying for residencies the numbers will be higher.... just my .02
most important thing is ..... DO YOUR OWN RESEARCH, don't take what someone else says as the end all be all...
good luck to all,
R
