No problem UVABranch. good luck!
Does anyone know if the PR schools offer a Spanish emersion program to help students?
For example, let's say my espanol is weak and I could move there in the early summer and learn up real quick like. I know I need to live in the language to get fluent.
I did very well in my undergrad classes. I had like 98 averages in my classes.
I have always wanted to be completely fluent.
Thanks, all!!
You probably want to call each school and ask about it. I don't know of any inmersion program in Ponce. I do know that there are a lot of people that attend that school that come from USA. If you apply, and you get an interview you need to speak Spanish fluently (or at least slowly but understandable). So the interview might be a little difficult. But if you make throught the interview, all you need to do is move to PR as soon as possible, and practice your Spanish.

Does anyone know if SJBSOM allows students to complete third and/or fourth year rotations on the mainland (assuming they are ACGME certified)?
After seeing how beautiful PR is and seeing the various hospital affiliations available there, I would be in no hurry to leave the island, just curious.

Via email, for me....how did they contact you for the interview phone or letter?
I interviewed at SJB in English...I've taken Spanish my entire life but never reached fluency because I never lived in Spanish-speaking country. I think most of the schools are English textbooks, exams and lectures so you really only need Spanish to talk outside class and with professors and patients.You probably want to call each school and ask about it.

I interviewed in English...they can do either language but they'd like you to review Spanish before classes start (I'm going to this summer).I was also contacted for an interview. However since my Spanish is very poor (I'm a non-native speaker and it's been a while since I took Spanish in high school), should I just forget about it if the interview is going to be in Spanish?
yea I know...I've been waiting since December...they said they were gonna do things differently this year and just let everyone know in March...thats about all they said that I can remember from...did you interview yet?
