They think that because they got accepted into a medical school it means that by virtue of that they must be good enough to become a physician and will be handed an MD and a residency on a silver platter as if becoming a doctor is all but guaranteed once you get accepted, which of course could not be further from the truth. For the record, they're all incredibly good doctors.

I don't know about other schools, but SGU has a match rate of around 93%, and Ross 88%. To those who have already committed to the Caribbean, I wholeheartedly wish you luck.As to your question OP - It stems from lots of sources I gather.Some individuals truly do not understand the risks. Do people still not realize that these are academic lotteries just to take your money? Pretty much explains it. No one wants to hear they’re not cut out for it.A better question is why do you care so much?
Are people attending these schools cause of undergrad flyers or out of desperation. To keep it short, Ross has decided to continue the semester on a cruise ship.... that's right a cruise ship. For reference, I go to a DO school.At SGU, they said they start with a class size of 800, and they are down to 400 by the time rotations start. They have a high fail rate because they have a high acceptance rate. Every building had flyers advertising the Caribbean, but not once were we ever told the risks of that route. Id say a large majority know they made a crappy choice going their but DO school was not an option but they are okay with being a PCP.I know a lot of graduates from SGU, as does my dad, who works as a radiation therapist.
my parents are both doctors in____ and they think id be good too" A small minority of them went because their whole life they've told everyone they are gonna be doctors and that feeling/pride has forced them to go to the island because they couldn't get in state side and felt embarrassed not achieving what they have been telling everyone for years. To appease their parents they'll go to any medical school they'd get into. Individuals who could get into US DO schools but care more about the two letters after their name than the risks and setbacks of being an IMG.What many people seem to misunderstand about the Caribbean is that the risk of going there is largely self-mitigated and determined by your own performance. Once a Caribbean medical student makes it past basic science they should be considered the same as US medical students. A majority of them saw it as a chance to do what theyve always wanted to do but could not achieve state side. Our mission is to educate and empower a truly diverse and dedicated population of students who are determined to make an undeniable impact on the communities they serve. This post is not meant to shit on Caribbean Schools, just really trying to understand the thought process.Ive met plenty of Caribbean students on my clerkships. Knowing that I was so lucky to match in to this program in the first place, I figured I'd give it a shot. It is not a high risk choice for everyone.If someone is extremely bright but just underperformed in undergrad for any multitude of reasons, and they understand fully what's involved, and they are happy in a primary care specialty why the fuck wouldn't you go to the Caribbean? In my appeal i outline I was going through a rough time with the passing away of a family member and how I plan to change a lot of things to prepare for my 4th attempt. Press J to jump to the feed. Go about your life, my guy. They are not delusional (except a few who want ortho and Uro).
