Your hostile attitude aside I do hope this helps.

Wow Kerrmd I'm going to just start off by saying that with the attitude that you've been displaying on these boards you're going to have a difficult time finding someone willing to take the time to address your concerns.

Myself I've never even visited SABA, but I am going to be a first semester student in May of this year and am excitedly getting myself prepared.

I understand your anxiety about going to any medical school and realize that it is one of the most important decisions of your life so let me tell you what I found most useful.

California requires that all foreign schools that have graduates seeking licensure in CA go through a very rigorous assessment including sending a team to investigate both the school itself and at least one of the school's clinical training sites.

When I was researching SABA and other medical schools I used this website : http://www.medbd.ca.gov/Schools.htm to help me determine which school would be best for me to entrust my education.

This http://www.medbd.ca.gov/Saba_Report.pdf is the site visit report for Saba. It contains a highly objective report on Saba.


Also Pat Parks who works for the medical board of CA was extremely helpful. She really is the expert on offshore medical schools.

So please check out the medical board of CA website, and please if you do decide to come to Saba leave your hostile attitude in the states .


Hope this helps.

-Matt
