Question About Caribbean Schools.

[BTH]

Greetings:

I just wanted to get the opinions of the people who have attended a medical school in the Caribbeans. I know this question is open-ended and that it depends on each individual person but as a general consensus which school would you guys/girls consider as giving you the best medical education? Certainly we can all make our judgements based on the general consensus. I mean, most people don't have to attend Harvard to know that it is certainly a better school than most.

Out of Saint George, Ross University, AUC, and SABA, which one would be better in terms of giving you the best education, regardless of living conditions or price. Just an opinion would suffice. Thanks everyone!

The question is vesr subjective but as a parent I would take a guess at the following order:

SJU , Ross, Saba, Auc

hello. I attend school in Europe. ALmost finished and now looking for residency spots. Just to put on record, I have looked at a lot of FP, IM programs, especially ones IMG friendly, and I can say I see that SGU puts lots of students to work and I also see a few Ross grads as well, so those schools seem to produce good students, but with that said, there are a lot of variables to consider. I chose Europe because frankly it was cheaper for me, and it was a very successful choice. Try to visit the schools and you'll figure out which one best fits for you..good luck. 8)

Just on pure education...regardless of Island life or other factors, my guess would be:

1)SGU
2)none
3)SABA
4)Ross
5)AUC

This is for the average student population.

Top students at AUC are probably just as good as top students at SGU. Similarly, a bad student is a bad student no matter where they are at. But for the average population, the average SGU student is probably better than the average student everywhere else by a wide margin....perhaps due to the self-selecting nature of having a higher admissions criteria.
