Try and avoid the carribbean at all costs!!! I know a guy who went there and can't get back into the US for residency. It is MUCH easier to get into a good residency coming from a DO school, especially NYCOM. NYCOM is one of the best DO schools out there, so I would suggest going there. Coming from that school youre pretty much guaranteed getting residency, but from SGU youre not. When picking students for residency, hospitals first go to US students (MD and DO), and foreigners (carribbean included) get what's left, if any are left. Im sure youll get a great education at NYCOM. Good luck!
