I understand your pain--you want to be an MD. I know. I get it. That's why you have taken on a heavy debt burden at Ross so you can hope to achieve your dream. This is why you are supercillious at the idea of doing any other medical profession other than MD. I understand where that comes from. Yet, there are still things I would recommend, especially if you have failed at Ross, probably low stats too. Low stats are not an end game at US school, but there are for some who do not have the EC and experience that is needed to overcome them on the day the ADCOM reviews your app.
For one, explore: why MD? Is is about helping people or status? Again, you show a supercilious attitude at the thought of any other profession, yet the ADCOM committee is looking for compassionate and selfless people, or at least those who can show it on paper and on an interview. If you hold only the MD degree in high regard then maybe your outlook is not inline with what the ADCOM is looking for.
Second, you failed the first semester at Ross for "various reasons" which shows you are not taking responsibility for your actions (I'm sorry to say this out of the scan information you offer) but it does help to know this. Perhaps you must be honest with yourself, look at your GPA, MCAT, Ross performance and say: "I'm not ready for medicine." Notice how this feels, deep in your gut. Stay with it a bit. Don't allow your life to be one "various reasons" after another. Attack whatever is your academic problem first, honestly and with sincerity, but don't thinks that your failures are innate--only something you have to overcome if you want to reach your MD goal.
From another perspective, imagine you have a heart attack patient with an aortic dissection front of you. To be unable to treat the patient because you don't know the proper medicine behind these two comorbidities in one acute person does not stand up to "various reasons." Again, attack your own shortcomings with sincerity, you have to build the intellectual tools first so you can help patients.
I'm a big proponent of quitting! Quit Ross--if you can't do the first semester and then you go back but fail the USMLE and or get a low score it will be very difficult to be accepted into a residency program, plus think of all that debt! Quit, but quit like the resolute person who understands they have failed a battle but will return to war in a few years, stronger and even more resolute. This will help more than it will hurt you. If you can show that you accepted failure; built academic tools for yourself that you needed; and then retook MCAT and whatever you needed as an undergrad to matriculate; and all the while doing good strong community work; I so no reason why you should not be accepted into an US MD program.
There really is no quick fix into your predicament, but it can be fixed. Some students start med school in their late 20s, 30s, some mid thirties, beyond. Like everything else in life, time cures many things. ADCOMS will look past your failures if you show them the many ways you have achieved a second chance at sending your AMCAS a few years down the road.
Imagine just getting by at Ross, then subpar USMLE scores, it will only lead to a huge debt and then your MD dreams really will be totally dissolved. Right now you can quit, and build your life up to take on the MD challenge in a few years.
Quit Ross.
