Hi guys,
I just found out about SDN and this is my first post here 🙂 Great to meet you all! Still learning the ropes, so please let me know if I'm doing anything wrong!
I had a couple questions for the experts here! I am currently a Junior in undergrad double majoring in business and biology, and I was just wondering what you guys think about attending one of the big four Caribbean schools.
I didn't find out I wanted to be a doctor until well into my college career, and sadly my GPA is definitely not as competitive as a lot of people applying to MD schools in Texas, so attending med school abroad has always been a consideration for me. I think I remember reading that the residency match rate drops to around 40% (I believe that information was for 2004 though) which seems pretty scary and is the main thing that makes me hesitant about it.
Also, what are yalls opinions on retaking classes in undergrad to boost your GPA?
Thanks everyone!!
