Hi,

I had a question about applying to Caribbean Medical School. In short, if I have a guarantee to get into California rotations and California Residency after finishing my two years in the Caribbean, should I still go?
I live in California by the away.

Dont go to Caribbean until you have exhausted all your options.

It depends on the "guarantee." Are you getting the guarantee in writing? If it is just word of mouth I would not consider that a guarantee.

What if the guarantee falls through? People quit, move one, die, decide that they'd rather have a new medical wing paid for by someone else, etc.

Is it the Caribbean school guaranteeing it? I've heard that one before, but if you read the fine print that's only if you score perfectly in everything.

Will you have a guarantee if you go to a US school?
