Examination
Students who begin in August have a chance to apply for a second year. Most schools accept applications from February, interview in June, and accept at the end of June/July. Having ended only a year of graduation, the students likely have little time to explore research and relationships with the faculty. So the faculty members will write little for the recommendations. The schools have only first-year grades and MCAT scores and do not have any hope of accepting. The students must have a grade of 4.0 and a 30+ MCAT because they are competing against people with these scores.
Getting into the Caribbean Medical Schools
MCAT and GPA scores are usually not expected than other schools and some schools do not have such requirements at all. Before choosing a Caribbean Medical School make sure that it will meet all your needs and check for accreditation. Also make sure for any other issues such as to find residencies, etc.,
For any international school, it is also important to check what language the courses are taught in. For example Some schools are taught in Spanish. Most of the Caribbean schools use US textbooks for students and the lecturers are often from the US or Britain.
In some circumstances, the universities have also created deceiving claims about the hospitals they were apparently affiliated with the US but the fact is not that. To be sure, contact the hospitals and check whether the school is affiliated with them and if find any inconsistencies, keep away from that university.
