Thread: Can any current students comment on if MUA is a good school?

lol, does anybody even go to MUA?

To be more specific, I need the following answers...

1. How big is your class size
2. What is your class attrition rate (how many people from each term/semester move on to the next.)
3. Do you take a comprehensive shelf?
4. If you do, what % of your class passed?
5. Is it easy to get clinical spots for third year or do you have gaps.
6. Any idea what % of graduating class graduated in four years only

That's asking a lot but somebody has to know.

Thanks

Any MUA students on this forum?

I don't have personal experience with MUA but I know one girl from high school who went to MUA and managed to secure a residency in family medicine in Florida afterwards. General consensus when applying to the Caribbean is to stick to the Big 4 schools.

I finished at MUA. I'm an attending now. Overall I had a positive experience but any medical school you choose will be a hard long road. that is the nature of medical education.

What year did you graduate from MUA?

Do you know how many of your first year class secured a residency after four years?

I'm hearing that it is even harder now at the Big 4 these days. MUA is less money so I wanted to get some more info on the program and see if it is worth it.
