I was just in San Pedro and there is no Medical School

Hello, I am a prof. in the US and was just on vacation at a little resort just north of San Pedro. When I arrived I noticed on the map a "medical school" so wanted to check it out. We took a little trip down there and it was closed - boarded up and a for sale sign posted. We asked around to some of the locals about it and they said the school is definitely closed. We even met someone on the water taxi just chatting and they said they knew someone who had come down there to go to medical school and it had closed but didn't know why. So when I got back I wanted to find out what happened - did some googling - and found this forum, so thought I would post this to let you all know this doesn't seem like a legitimate school and give you my firsthand account from the island. I thought it was so weird when I visited the website that it would be up, and now I know why. I really hope all you pre-meds out there looking to get into medical school check things out thoroughly before you do anything. If nothing else, if I were you I'd go there and check out a school firsthand before giving them a penny.

Okay that's all, carry on.
