I am awaiting acceptance letter. Do you know anyone who went through the program previously so I can get a little more information on kmcic and manipal?
-Thanks
If you aint got it in your genes, sweat it out.
Does anyone have a real perspective on which campus would prepare a student better for usmles? Or to the least, would they be equivalent to each other in teaching methods, facilities, instructional quality, and profs? Although kmcic program is called the twinning program, I am surprised how little information (even on the kmcic website) is available to students interested in the program..
Would really like to get some realistic opinions and facts about the program instead of contemplating stuff. ..
Are there really 5th sem students out there who went through the kmcic program? Cuz I have been trying to reach almost every possible contact I can find on the internet.. lol

Your performance on the MLE depends far more on your individual effort in the 3-4 months preceding the test than where you went to school. KMC is a much older and more reputable institution so you'll probably get a better overall Basic Sciences education there. The reason most people prefer the Antigua campus because it's closer geographically.Does anyone have a real perspective on which campus would prepare a student better for usmles?

Recently I heard that there are 6 semesters to the Basic Sciences in Manipal compared to 4 in Antigua is that true?
Are the courses, exams the same?
are there any disadvantages to going to Manipal, besides being away from home, language and living conditions?
Is there a link to the KMCIC basic sciences besides this Manipal Kmcic ? This link gives info on the pre-med and basic health sciences and if you see the basic sciences shows 6 semesters. wanted to clarify that. thanks.
Can someone confirm that the structure of Manipal and Antigua is the same? I mean if you choose to do basic sciences in Manipal do we do the same courses, exams etc ? I know it take 2 yrs in Manipal compared to 16 months in Antigua, can someone tell me why the diff and is there a diff in the fees? please advice as I am seriously thinking of applying for July 08.
