Talking MUA Student profile
A few questions about the students at MUA:

What is the Male/Female student ratio?
Average age of MUA student?
Ethnic, Socioeconomical, and Religious Diversity?
Without a doubt, most everyone is highly studious, but what is the on campus and off campus social scene like?
Once you arrived on the island, was there one thing you wished you had brought with you that you didn't think of or forgot?

Thanks.
Lex

Admission commitee told me that 75% are from US and 25% elsewhere and that age range is 20-60. they said that the student body is very diverse.

50:50 male/females, avg age likely 25 or so, but really ranges from 20 up to even 60, people from all ethnicities, many diff economic backgrounds, and religious backgrounds for that matter, social scene is not all that, still lots of stuff to do depending on personal interests, but i mean you are going to med school - shouldnt be too much a concern anwyay, and heck you live in the caribbean, and wish i brought an electric mosquito swatter for the dorms.

It was an inside joke that only a few people would get and I thought some people might misinterpret it otherwise. I can't erase it, so I just modified it.
