Hello everyone,

I am currently a second semester student at a Mexican medical school.
I would like to transfer to UNIBE, but i would like some information regarding the school.

First, does the school curriculum is similar to those schools in the states?

Second, is the school system reputable and solid, in other words, would my money be worth and well spend in DR??

Third, do they examine you based on what they tought you during lecture or they just pull out an exam from an old book, or from question banks???

Fourth, Has anyone has transfered from a Mexican school to UNIBE, if that is the case please give me you inside toughts about the school system?

Fifth, as a transfer student is it diffucult to get accepted into the school?

Last, is UNIBE associeted with any medical school in the states so we can do rotations and get experience during the clinical rotations??


I will appreciate very much your suggestions,

Thank you, CM

Why do you want to leave Guadalajara? I ahve heard good things about that school. I know of two people who are here that studied there......are here because they partied way to much there. The money issue ..... it is well spent in the sense that you will get an md degree here but the teaching thus far in my opinion is not that good...they don't show up and when they do are hasty to leae early. You have to do things on your own here. Everything you learn will be learnt on your own! You may utilize your teachers as guides in your learning process and when they see that you are interested itn the subject matter, they will oblige you but most of them are doctors here and get to class exhausted if at all. The exams depends on the professor.....some use question banks, some test on what they taught you and soem test on what they did'nt teach you! As for rotations in U.S. ....yes but for only one semester and you have to be a top student in order to qualifyto do them (they don't want to risk their name sending mediocre students to U.S. hospitals). In short, UNIBE is not a bad school and you will come across some really good professors and some horrible professors but you make out of it what you want to. Unibe aaccepts Transfers as long as you are not a total screw up. Good luck.

UAG is excepted in all US states....unibe only in some southern states......takes brains to tranfer from UAG to Unibe....keep it up!!!
