Don't know what a Greenbook rotation is? Click here.
Preliminary list of state licensing requirements here.
If you have a question, post it at the AUA forum. I can't respond to PMs due to Step 2 coming up very soon.

I noticed that, that is why i wanted him to clear it up. Does he work for a MEMG or is he directly on the school payroll? it has been suggested that he is the owner but I have not seen anything to back it up.

Either way, the school has a lot of explaining to do. Hopefully they will be able to pull it all together so that their student body will be able to succeed without being hindered by the school.

Is this consultancy group - MEMC - a ''not for profit'' foundation too?

That's a pretty strong statement! So far there is no proof CMU has scammed anybody. What is your reason for joining VMD and then spending most of your posts slamming this school? It is easy to write negative things about a school that is just opening. Were you scammed by them? What school do you go to? Do you work for a school and are an unregistered agent on VMD for that school? Inquiring minds want to know. RL has done meet VMD's requirements and registered as an agent of his school and business.

I'm just waiting though for a response though on the legitimate concerns of the website and clinical rotation spots. Those are not negative "allegations."

and instead of the school official responding or trying to stop the bickering and trash talking on vmd, i think the more urgent or important matter is to address the 2 problems cmu has on its hands: plagiarism and PA rotations

and yet this CMU school offical has pointedly avoided these topics.

also it should be easy enough to show a copy of your charter- it would be the easiest way to shut up the naysayers about the legitamacy of your school.

I sure hope I am smarter than a lawyer, I am 4 months from an M.D.!! CMU is still a joke, not because it is new, but because of its cult like endless cheerleading . Let one student from CMU pass step 1, step 2CK, and Step 2CS, and get a residency, then you can say something. Your rabid sycophantic attitude towards your institutuion sounds more like a late night informercial than an institute of medical education. The reason many of us dislike CMU's tactics is that from the view of many US program directors, carib grads are all the same, regardless of which school. So when one of us acts foolish, we all must deal with the consequences. So, please, start acting professional, stop with the idiotic reality tv stuff. Also,the school official contantly on the student forum truly shows how desparate school admin must be.
