Greetings. I'm watching this in 2023. I just subscribed. It's great to see people get matched from Caribbean Schools.
exactly! a medical school is a medical school, Ross is an accredited school , if you study to be a doctor you are a doctor regardless of going to a caribbean school
Couldn’t agree more Larissa! 🙌🏾🙏🏾
You inspire me man! I'm a chiropractic student, and I decided to apply to Ross, I got interviewed and I'm waiting for a response.
Good luck my man! Keep me posted! 🙌🏾🙏🏾
@@doctorcurtiso.7853 Hey Dr. Curtis! I am currently at MERP program! I am doing great and loving the experience, getting ready to Med School 🙌🏻 Hope you and your family are doing great!
Bruh thank you for this video, I am currently changing my career- going from Nursing home administration to Medicine ( I graduated undergrad with a 2.646 GPA and a 2.2 sGPA...currently going through a post Bacc pre-medicine program at Cleveland State University, and I am inspired by your video! Hoping to become a surgeon one day or a hospitalist)
Excellent content. Very informative and actually for free. Hope all of you all that have questions on how to navigate their way on that path. You are blessed to have Dr. Curtis laying it all out for you. Am Proud !
Please don’t stop making videos Dr. O
You got it Leroy! 🙏🏾
Can you go into cardiology from a Caribbean school
Thanks for the information, and I love background. 👌🏾
Thank you Doc! 🙌🏾🙌🏾
Again, my sincere condolences to you. I really enjoyed the video bro and keep the great content coming!
Thank you Jamelle. Greatly appreciate it!
Hey man! First of all, my condolences to you and your family. Also, thanks for answering my question! I'll let you know when I get in!
Thank you! And No problem my man! And for sure let me know! 💪🏾
Doctor O - so sorry for your loss. Thanks for the content. I’m currently on the undergrad path to being a PA. I was wondering if having tattoos on my arms , (tasteful and nothing obscene of course ) is discriminated against by employers , and if you’ve had any issues with this. Thank you :)
Hey, so things have changed markedly over the past couple of decades I believe. We don’t live in a perfect world so obviously there will be some people who still are uncomfortable with it but for the most part, society is becoming more and more accepting of it. I know quite a bit of doctors, nurses, PT, RT, etc that have tattoos. There are some that even wear earring in the work place as a male. I would say, if you have an interview, cover up that way you’re not prejudged. But after that, do you. I doubt you will feel that type of discrimination that makes you very uncomfortable. Hope that helps and sorry about the late reply!
Can you make a video explaining what you know about the different type of specialty’s and pros and cons like u said abojt emergency medicine..?
Great video by the way! :)
My HBCU has a partnership with Ross that would allow me to have a free semester and housing grant, I just can’t see being away from my elderly father for two years
In Houston too!!!! Thanks for the video 🎉
Thank you Dr. Curtis! Invaluable info 🙏❤️
How did you become sick as a doctor? Is your condition something that you could have prevented?
It’s me !!!! Great job
🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽 I promise I didn’t ask all those questions!! 😊
😂😂😂 I bet you did!
Hey Curtis, this is Andrew. Thank you for this video, it was very helpful
You are very welcome Andrew! 🙌🏾
Thank you for your informative information and your excellent video thank you
Thank you for all the information. As a lady in my 30s I am considering Caribbean medical school.
Definitely consider! Especially Ross and St.George! 🙏🏾
Go for it sis. I’m 40, psychiatric Nurse practitioner, Family Nurse Practitioner and starting in sept I’m very excited...
chi eze congratulations 🎈🎊🍾🎉 strong world 💪🏾
chi eze are you going to a school in the Caribbean or here in the states?
Sherice A Linton yes... Ross precisely. Take the advantage of Covid-19. Ross is waiving Mcat. St George’s is equally waiving MCAT. Although I took mine in 2018. Pls come on board and you will never regret it. Don’t tell too many people b/c they will discourage you (my lil advice)
you earned a sub love your videos
Thank you very much! 🙌🏾🙌🏾
Appreciate the great content!! I wanted to know if you think their is a good chance to match into anesthesia while attending a Caribbean school
Hello Dr. Curtis! I´m 33 years old and going to take the Mcat around Jan-Feb 2021 and don´t want to wait until 2022 to start med school. My big concern is about my residency preference which is Dermatology in Florida, do you recommend I should apply to Florida med schools and wait until the process is completed and start in 2022 or can I give it a shot to a Caribbean med school like Ross or St. George´s?
I know quite a few people who went Derm from Ross or SGU. It is definitely doable and realistic for sure. Obviously US schools are ideal but those two schools are very competitive with students getting into a specialty such as that. So its hard to tell you what route you should go but I can at least tell you you can DEFINITELY get into derm from a Caribbean school
Doctor Curtis O. Thank you so much for your advice and guidance!!! Very helpful😊
Hi Dr Curtis. I'm new to your channel but have enjoyed watching your videos. Very informative and you're very enthusiastic. I have Q. I was accepted directly into American University of Antigua and Merped by Ross. Have to decide soon. In this video you mentioned SGU/Ross being superior to other caribbean schools especially now with Step 1 being P/F. Do you think Merp to Ross is the way to go?
I believe merp is the way to go in my opinion. Not to say you can’t succeed by going through AUA, but Ross and SGU are much superior in the eyes of residencies. You’ll be gambling by taking your chance at merp obviously so you have to really consider that risk but if you’re confident in yourself that you’ll pass merp then I say go for it.
@@doctorcurtiso.7853
Signed up for MERP. Thank you so much!!!
im actually a PharmD student and im thinking about leaving my program and going st george or ross. i hate pharmacy school n i dont see myself as a pharmacist
What about specialties like cardiac, does pass/fail hurt the cardiac specialty?
Hey Dr. Curtis O, how much will my nursing GPA effect me in the medical school application process? Is that considered part of the science GPA? Besides nursing classes I have a pretty high science GPA but nursing school I was averaging around a B and B- , Thank you
How did you pay for MERP program? A doctor Curtis oh how were you able to pay for the merp program. Success academically means does negate the cost of MERP?
Hi Dr. O, where are you from originally please?
First comment
😂😂😂
Is medical school classes like college where you have for 4 classes (12 credits per semester)? Or it like one class with a whole lot of things per semester.
Typically it’s broken up by systems. So like musculoskeletal, respiratory, urogenital, etc! Hope that helps!
What’s your opinion of AUC?
Do you mind sharing what your GPA was?
NAC NAC I don’t mind. 1.8 GPA freshman year and placed on academic probation. Graduated with a 3.2 but had a much lower science GPA but can’t remember what it was.
Nwoke
What is the gpa range for admitted students to ross and other big four schools?
It’s about 3.3 GPA if I remember correctly. SGU is around the same as well. I can’t speak for the other Caribbean schools though.
@@doctorcurtiso.7853I have around a 3.2. What does that mean for my chances of attending a school in the Caribbean? Are my chances low?
I used to be an athlete too. I was trying to run professional track and field and had some mental health issues which shot my chances. I went back to school and raised my GPA, I am hoping to chase my dream of becoming a doctor. Is it still realistic?
