It’s important to understand that the medical school you attend is not the final determinant in whether or not you’ll be a good physician. I know a great deal of highly [impressive physicians who trained at Caribbean medical schools, and other physicians who trained in the U.S. who are not as impressive. That being said, we believe in full transparency and making educated decisions.
At Med School Insiders, we’re surprised how commonly Caribbean medical schools are suggested and recommended to pre-med applicants, without regard for the significant drawbacks.
