yeah, ok! I see you are easily impressed.

You just joined valuemd 2 days ago and this is your only posting: Hmmmmm?

You are more than welcome. Why don't you email the student government president.

Please, e-mail other students at other schools or mods of valuemd to get a more complete view about this school.

How would students from other schools or Moderators know anything about AGU? Your "information" has been proven to be untrue so I'm not sure how anyone else would be able to make a judgement on the school without either visitng or waiting until the first class sits for Step 1. It has been open for LESS than a year...you cannot either praise or slam the school fairly at this point.

What has been proven to be untrue? Please: Elaborate!

1) The school will not post faculty names on its website
2) Views of belize city and the ocean on the website even though belomopan is inland.
3) 10 full time profs in belieze and 30 students. Why have I been pm'd from others (6 others) that this is simply not true.

I did not even tell him/her anything anti AGU, I just said pm students at other caribbean med schools. Also, for a less biased viewpoint, pm students who are not at Belize med schools.

In response:

1. It's obvious that AGU does not have a great website...they are working on getting the faculty posted. This takes time.

2. Yes there are pictures of the beach. Many schools have pictures on their websites that are not on their campus or immediate area. The ocean is about 50 miles away...I have been to the coast many times since I arrived in August. The website clearly states the school is in Belmopan. They are simply showing the many beautiful areas of Belize.

3. Your sources are inaccurate. Many of them are referring to AGU during the first semester. At that time you are correct, there were only 10 of us and 2 professors. There was no need for more. Again, I find it interesting only one of your "sources" has contacted me. If they were ever affiliated with AGU I would know them.

I am just telling him/her to look at many schools, not just say I want to go to this school or that school. The 1st line a applications should be to the Big 4, no questions asked. After that, look at a fair amount of schools, not just one or two and perspective students should ask themselves:

1) USMLE Pass rates for the schools.
2) Clinicals

That's the first post you have written in this forum that made sense. If you really want to be a "good samaritan" maybe you should take this approach instead of going around slamming schools you know nothing about.
