international bound students,

where did you choose and why?
 
We made that decision 2 years ago.
The ONLY criteria was PROVEN TRACK RECORD.
It meant 20-years operation + thousands of doctors already practising back in USA.
Only (4) qualifies in the Caribbean.
We eliminated UAG (Guadalajara) & ROSS due to many horror stories + Jurassic Park life.
St George's were considerably more expensive, and had MCAT requirement of around 27. I believe it is the BEST choice for a man who can handle the drugs & some hardship.
For a single lady (my wife) we decided that the AUC was the best compromise.
Well, that is history.
She is now an MS-3 starting clinicals in the USA. Let's have a big hand for her.
Good luck to everyone. IMG route is tough, but for the dedicated student, the rewards are there.
