Residencies requiring ECFMG certificate at interview!!!!!!

Hi all,

So all of us who are graduating this spring and matching in march 13 are very frustrated by the fact that all decent programs have a requirement for IMGs on their webpage that says MUST HAVE ECFMG CERTIFICATE BY INTERVIEW, RANK ORDER DATE OR BY JANUARY of 2013. How in the world can the 90% of us who are graduating in jan, feb, march, april, may and even June have this certificate any earlier than may?? How has this worked for people in AUC SGU ROSS SABA ANTIGUA SMU in the past?? Any advice/comments appreciated.

Questions to Current AUA Students!

Hi everyone,
I'm a prospective student applying to AUA and also UAG (in mexico) for school and I'd like to get a feel for how things are done at AUA :D
First of all, I am confused by the fact that there are 10 semesters (as advertised on the website) because I thought the program was 4 years? Unless there are no breaks at all?
Also, could you guys enlighten me on how getting rotations your third and fourth years work? For example, what percentage of the class actually gets to do their rotations? How many people actually do finish on time in 4 years, match and start residency right afterward?
I'm assuming that there are some people who fail classes/step 1 and don't get to move on but that's understandable.
Thanks in advance guys!

Can someone please explain this?

Looks like NBA star Chandler Parson's brother goes to AUA

I just read someone talked about at AUA, most teaching faculty are from India, and guy who taught biochem. has a phd in nursing from Germany. When i read the faulty page on AUA website, i found many are from US, but do those people actually teach those classes or their names are just there to make the school looks good? thanks!

Rotations, Payment, and Time

Took 10 months to prepare for Step 1...

I know. Was in the first test group to do Falcon Review on the island, needless to say I felt ill prepared. Practice tests after 3 moths of study were in the 3 digit 200 range. Worked with a study partner in NYC, took my Step in July, and scored 230. Was it worth it to create this possible red flag to raise my Step 30 points ? I certainly hope so.

Thanks, and best of luck to all

hello everyone. I am a canadian student looking to pursue a medical education in the caribbean. I currently have three schools i am considering but i am very worried about all the negativity I have come across in regards to them all. I am a mature student and already have a professional degree, so investing another 4 years without being able to guarantee a residency is very terrifying for me. I am considering St. Matthews, AUA and Ross. Any comments, positive or negative, in regards to general academic preparation, USMLE success, quality of teaching, quality of clinical placements would be greatly appreciated.

AUA Fail Out Rate

$
0
0
Dear All, I heard that AUA has a high fail rate; While I understand that some students are not motivated to study, this is not the group I am referring to. I mean on average for a student who studies fairly hard, do many students fail out?

I am currently at a Caribbean school and a lot of hard studying student are failing, over 30%. I was told that since Carribbean schools do not have heavy screening that this is to be expected. Is this what can be expected at AUA? Thank you. Bless all :)

To All AUA students. Please stay away from Ruth's Place. This place is a dump! I stayed there for a week but then someone with a key to my place broke in my apartment while I was in class and stole my macbook and $600 usd. Ruth was no help and refused to give me back my deposit when I wanted to move out. This place is not safe. Please check it out in person!
