Looks interesting... Is this a valid medical school? I cant seem to find them listed by IMED.

"The year begins with a course in sexual medicine "

Did Marvin Gay not write a song about this?

"Accreditation

The Global Medical University (GMU) was thus far awarded a charter by several, separate Governments. Each charter is given to the school by the country, and therefore recognized by the World Health Organization. As such the degrees awarded by GMU are recognized by the each of the Governments and entitle the graduates to practice in the Federations subject to local rules and regulations. "

should have an IMED listing by the above claim...hmmm

"Will I be able to obtain a residency?
99% of those eligible U.S. graduates who applied obtained ACGME-approved residency positions in 364 hospitals throughout 41 states (taken from alumni surveys with a 96% response rate), Our international graduates obtain postgraduate training in the United States, the United Kingdom, or in their home countries. "

This is an interesting one.

General Impression: Not Valid

Reasoning: http://www.finalforce.org/medicalschool.htm

"The Medical Schools are currently located in eight different countries with other locations currently being build, or via Online-distance education through our electronic learning program"

You can't find ANY grads anywhere so this school is apparently lying on their website...and indeed the online education thing is fishy.
