CCSE is a killer. I have a buddy at AUA which I think is a better school than MUA and he's got straight A's in basic sciences and is about to attempt CCSE for the third time. Very scary.
Yeah, 47% is still leaving out a lot of people including those who didn't take loans. I estimate the # to be more like 25-30% overall.
Any other advice on MUA that you think we should know about?
No it does not leave out any one who didn't take loans.
If you are a US citizen/permanent resident you are part of the 47%. Its a reporting requirement even if the individuals didn't take loans. Only Canadian/foreign citizens are excluded.
RLRA doesn't really weed anyone out, it just prevents people from starting clinicals in a timely manner leading to graduation delays.
If he's failing the CCSE. He would fail CK.
People hate hearing it, but caribbean school exams e.g. AUA's are not the same quality as the USMLE. So individuals like him who got A's, didn't really deserve them.
They would not have survived at a US med school.
