What is the overall rating? The school cliams that the listing on WHO is on its way, how truthful are they? Please comment...Thank you

Please go only to reputable schools.

All saints by no means is a reputable medical school......better spend your money on schools that have history producing quality physicians.

AUC, ROSS, UWI, SABA, MUA, SGU are some of the better ones out there !!

Check their websites for updates. All their rotations are conducted in accredited US teaching hospitals. You will have to contact the school for more information.

What do you think about AUA?

thank you all members!

what is the advantage of the more reputable school? Obviously, neither St. George's or All Saints is an american school. The latter is about one-fifth the price. In all practicality, what advantage does one receive in going to St. George's over All Saints. I'm asking because I want to know, not because I want to put anyone on the spot.

hey you know i would have to say that you get what u pay for... a lot of these schools that have a lower tuition boast about how they are a great school and that they have a good rate for passing the boards and mold their students to be good physcians...becareful because alot of them dont...i know some students that took a whole year off to study for their boards and had to teach themselves what the schools were suppose to teach them. another thing with the newer schools...it maybe hard to apply for residency...with the older schools for the most part you wont have that problem...so if u cant afford sgu then i would try one of the other schools but my opinion is to keep away from all saints unless your a hundred percent sure that u wont encounter any problems in going there...and dont ask any of the schools because alot of them will lie to u because this is their way of making money. i am not trying to bash all saints but i just want u to really think about it because u are putting in alot of time and money so u want to make sure that you are secure in recieving a great education...okay i hoped this helps

In the end it really doesnt matter what school you go to, so long as you have the accreditation to write USMLE/MCC exams. Some of the older schools give 2-3 months to prepare for step1, while newer ones can be more 'generous' in offering a few more months to prepare for your boards. This would have to be taken up with the Dean of Academics of the school.

There are no issues with residency. Only issue for licensure is with the states that require their own approval for each school (ex. california, etc).

With ASUM, you have to write step1 after basic sciences, before you can do your clinicals.

For the board exams, its upto you on how well you prepare yourself. Not based on what school you go to. A school may help you motivate yourself in some ways for the boards, but in the end you are all that is to be accounted for. All you have to do is study.

Aside from the fact that this school is new, what are the real problems with it? I understand that people oppose it because presently there might be more viable options. However, I can not understand why anyone would say that the school is bad simply because they have not proven their track record. I will be the first to admit, I do not contain all of the information about this school. The fact that they have two campus sites to me seems positive. The fact that a company may run them, to me is actually more of a positive than a negative, asumming they have a good business model. Anyways, I guess I am looking for any real reasons why this school should be avoided. Anyway, if anyone has any info, it would be nice to hear...
Thanks ...
