Thanks, I only ask that you post what you feel.

You obviously feel correctly and do not need to be destroyed.

Heirarchies? Are they Real?

The U.S. has some of the best medical schools in the world.
Top Ten in fact.

The problem is that only 10 schools are in that top ten.

What about the worst ten medical schools in the US?

What about the WHOLE Lower 50%.
Good God what are they teaching those students!

I am sorry to say that they are teaching the same thing that all the other schools are teaching. They are passing on medical information for the USMLE. And trying not kill any patients in the process.

To imagine that there is some incremental heirarchy where students from Princeton and Harvard are the best doctors in the nation is silly.
As silly as thinking that all the students from Michigan State University are all awaiting their trials as future Kervorkians

Each doctor is their own person. And a doctor that can pass the board and communicate well with mexican natives will be welcome in many programs in the U.S.

UAG has its place and it is much better than the bottom 10 medical schools in the U.S..
UAG may be better than the 50% level compared to medical schools in the U.S.

????

are u calling my friends slackers bc they failed the USMLE, unlike any other student at UAG, right.. I did not want to turn this nasty, but someone always tries to call me a lier, usually its that one poster who claims every comment about UAG must adhere to his standard of positive spin. First of all, u guys need to look back at prev threads, according to one of them, DR. M did throw a shelf in once yet never covered rel material. NOw if this info is false, u did not claim it was false last fall when it was posted as a thread, only after I am bringing this info back up again do u seem to be making this implication. If my friends are somehow unique and do not work as u claim, what is the schools REAL AND HONEST passing rate, my two friends may not have been in the top 10% of the class, but they were at least average, I do believe they are honest with me and give me cred info regarding the pros and cons of UAG. I am also not claiming carrb schools are better then UAG, esp ROss which has grown so large many of their students are not matching.

  • well well, if its not MR or Mrs UAG attack dog, always right, never wrong, I was just wondering where u were, instead of going after my spelling maybe you should try to remember how much the school admin cared about u during the 5th pathway crisis, THEY DID NOT, and yet u defend them when U defend the school. Was it not you who posted some info about UAG's owners selling the school, that should demonstrate just what king of individuals u all have been defending, not fighters who go down with their ship,,,but cowards who put their profit over your well being, but u defend them, NOT MEXICO, with your posts. Furthermore, the info about the leanos selling the school, can that be 100% varified--no, did i attack u for posting this info and claim u should not be posting it bc it may be complete hersay, not at all, u seem to use a double standard with your posts as opposed to mine

auuuwwww....it is very late to read your post but I imagine what it says. You need to eat some "sopa de letras" maybe you can digest and use some periods and commas while writing.

ok I read it. It was hard but I did it. Find one post of mine after january 3rd that I have defended the school in any way regarding the FPP fiasco and the way the administration has handled this matter.This is your problem, you talk and you talk and when you write it is even worse. The information can be verified, maybe not in Brazil but here in Mexico, yes. It hasnt been confirmed but there are talks about it. This is probably something that you wont understand; it goes beyond "el Gordo y la Flaca" some people here tend to watch. Education and diversity are golden. good luck

can we call them something else? I have known many students here for a while. The people that took school seriously and study for the USMLE while in school, they all pass their tests in the first time. The ones that studied old test and party a lot, didnt. They didnt do something right, were slackers and/or simply didnt have what it takes to go to medical school. Plain and simple. Any other spin would just demonstrate sympathy and since I dont know them to have sympathy/empathy for them. I agree with the description of the above. good luck
