Hello everyone just asking for some advice I've applied to the carribean(Sgu,Ross) and Puerto Rico (Ponce, U central del caribe,SJBSOM) I have a 3.45 GPA and 27 on the MCAT🙁 have great letters of recommendations and about 3 years of volunterring, worked in a hospital for 2 years as a phlebotomist and the list goes on.. which of these schools do I have the greatest chance of getting accepted[/b] and should I apply to other carribean programs or is that enough... p.s dont really want to take the MCAT again even though that was my first time.

Stats look good enough for the Caribbean. I'd also add AUC to the list that you should apply to.

I agree with AllIn4Life.

PR because most schools there are LCME which are seen as equal to US schools. Carib schools are not LCME and are considered foreign.

They use English books and you will review with English step 1 material.

If you speak fluent Spanish, then it should not be a big deal. I am not sure, but you may be able to take the exams in English, too.
