Mexican Medical Schools

Does anybody know what some of the best medical schools in Mexico are? I'm from the US and plan to do medical missions work in Mexico. I plan to attend college here and attend med school in Mexico. But, I would like to know what some of the more prestigious medical schools in Mexico are. (I've already ruled out the University of Guadalajara because of its rather shady reputation.) Thanks for any help!

You are corect about that, even though many of it's grads did well on board exams. Needless to say it's very expensive (for a mexican school).

The rest of the schools in Mexico are all in Spanish, so UAG is the only English med school. Here is the list of mexican med schools:

If you are afraid of having problems with spanish, try Montemorelos University Medical school (http://www.um.edu.mx) it is a very good Medical school located around 180 Miles south of McAllen Tx. The school is full of International students and staff, and many clases are offered in enlish too.

Scotty's,
University of Guadalajara and Autonomous University of Guadalajara are two different schools. University of Guadalajara and Autonomous University of Guadalajara(UAG) are both great schools. UAg is private and has two programs. 1 aim at Latino and mexican students and the other one mostly aimed at U.S. and puertorican students. UAG is the oldest private school in mexico.

University of Guadalajara is public and great too but is progrma is aimed at mexican students not international.

Is there any reason you specifically want Mexico? It sounds like you are young, perhaps you can aim for an American school.

part of the shady rep has only come of late. a recent study ranked UAG in the top 4 schools for number of docs who have been punished by state medical boards. the study included US schools, with the worst of the US schools actually ranking right behind at number 5. the study was corrected for school grads so as not to artificially make schools with lots of grads look bad. UAG ranked very poorly, along with a school from the philippines, meharry, and i think st lucia was among the top(bottom!) 5. the study was published by the govt, but was reported in the "Hartford Courant" newspaper, about 2 years ago.
