Caribbean Medical Schools: A Journey and Guide

'Caribbean Medical Schools: A Journey and Guide' is written by a recent graduate of a Caribbean Medical school. He takes you through the entire process including: admission, financial aid, USMLE tests, clinical rotations, work visas, and how to get a residency in the United States. Statistics show that 50 out of 100 American Pre-Med students do not gain admission into medical school in the U.S., and 85 out of 100 Canadian Pre-Med students do not gain admission into medical school in Canada. Many students give up on their dream of becoming a physician. But you don't have to! There is a completely reasonable and proven alternative to American and Canadian medical schools. Caribbean Medical Schools offer the first two years of medical school in the Caribbean and the third and fourth years of medical school at hospitals in the U.S. or Canada. After graduation you can obtain post graduate training in the U.S.! Get step by step information on the entire process, all in this book!

4be critical  Oct 17, 2009
THis book is awesome and will help you out ALOT. But if you are serious about going to the caribbean you need to do so much more research than this. You need to educate yourself extensively on many schools because this is an important decision and this book is only a small part of it all. I recommend you read the book and go and visit as many schools as you can.

5It's never too late to give up on your dream!!!  Jul 31, 2009
This book gives you a great behind the scenes look into Caribbean Medical Schools. Being a not so great standardized test taker myself, the MCAT should and will not determine whether or not you get into medical school. Don't sell yourself short, and never give up on your dream because of the competition in the U.S. or Canada. Med school is med school. It's as simple as Undergraduate colleges and SAT scores. Dr. Asad Raza gives legitimate reasons for attending Caribbean Medical Schools. Do not sit around and wait extra semesters or years just to try to please some of these Admissions committees. This book is logical, education, and for the student who wants to attend a Caribbean Medical School and practice in the U.S. He goes over the Pros and Cons of attending such a school, but believe me, he has no regrets and has received a great education from SABA University. He breaks down the number of spots available in residences, the cost & tuition of such schools, and how to go through the USMLE process in order to pass boards. I strongly recommend this book for someone who might have a lower MCAT or a average science or cumulative GPA. Many of the people who attend medical school are of older age, and many have diverse backgrounds such as other jobs, countries, families, etc. He also recommends which schools are the best to apply to!

Definately a must read, and remember this book makes you realize to go for your dream of becoming a physician.

5MUST HAVE BOOK  Jun 16, 2009
MUST HAVE for anyone considering international medical schools especially if you are a CANADIAN. It is funny how soo many IMGs i have across especially Canadians don't know about the issues that IMGs have to deal with and this book puts everything into perspective regarding all the issues needed for licensure in US. BEFORE investing your dollars in your choice of medical school MAKE SURE to read this book. YOU WILL BE surprised by how much you don't know!

5Shining a light into the Unknown  Jun 12, 2009
I can proudly say that this book brings very detailed information about medical schools journey in the Caribbean and hands over the tools (and his personal experience) you need to succeed. I'm attending Windsor Medical School in the Caribbean soon and this book gives great up-to-date information for the journey ahead. I got in touch with the author and he was very helpful in resolving any questions i had.

Thank you Dr. Asad Raza
