Thoughts on All Saints School of Medicine

[mkd]

Hi everyone, 

i recently considered going to all saints school of medicine in the Caribbean. I just wanted to know if this would be a good move? Also anyone who has been here, could you please tell me how your experience was?

The only carribean schools you should attend(if youre absolutely on your last resort) are SGU, Ross, AUC or SABA.  Outside of those, are downright stupid. The "big 4" have a decent track record, they are still very risky - but if one is very flexible, then you can come out alive. The other schools simply do NOT have the funds or means of connections with US hospitals for quality rotations(OR enough rotations that are crap, for all students hence  the culling in years 1-2)

Thank you for the advice!

In my experience, although I've met residents who have graduated from various Carib med schools, I have never met one that graduated from the one you mentioned. Just some anecdotal evidence.

Matching as a Canadian from the carribean is already difficult coming from the Big 4, going elsewhere adds waaaaay too many extra risks and variables.
