yes, but THOSE people never got a degree through their own merit (or lack of)- they failed classes or couldn't pass the steps- NOT because they were ineligible to sit for the boards because their school was not imed listed...yes- foreign schools should be a last resort- but knowing that it is your last chance- you should do everything to get through- its med SCHOOL- not club med...
