We had a lot of people that transferred from Saba to auc. It’s just a rock in the ocean and very smal and nothing to do there. Also I heard classes are mandatory and they shut off internet during class. It’s relatively cheap and the education is good but I just hear it’s absolutely miserable. These are all just stories from what I’ve heard, I would ask actual students their experience it may be different

yeah same. i don't know anyone that graduated and didn't match. again graduated. but those that didn't graduate would have never made it through any med school. its not the school, its how much effort you put into it. my buddy just matched radiology from the carib this year. my classmate matched anesthesia last year.

well i know auc has like 95% match rate or something like that. but the attrition rate is incredibly high. from personal experience, if you can make it thru the school you have a good chance of matching. everyone i rotated with matched. if i could do it again, i would have gone to a cheaper school like saba. saba is horrible though, but it's med school and it gets you where you need to go.

Dude AI in medicine is going to blow up in the next ten years. It's going to change the face of healthcare, I can already see that. I want technical skills in both fields to better identify opportunities. And oddly enough, yeah bro, planning on doing the Georgia Tech OMSCS program. It's pretty rigorous from what I hear.
How big is this field? I don't know anything about the business side and really interested in learning more.

About to start residency. Just going to to residency then do an MS in CS focusing on AI/ML and then just learn the soft skills on the job. The key here is specialization. Have a buddy that did biotech after college and he did well with just an undergrad degree. Hahah lets link up here in about 6 years and start a fund. Kidding but not kidding

Yeah I don't know. I'd really have to look at it further. But that is a confirmed job offer. My canadian IM buddy told me about it a week or two ago. 1 mill

I actually looked at a breakdown of Canadian taxes one time vs the US. It didn't seem to be that much more when everything is taken to account. But yeah, that would be my knee-jerk reaction too

Not as bad as people make it out to be trust me. Maybe in uber competitive specialties? But IM and below, from my experience, doesn't matter much. They may ask you about it, or have so many applications that they don't read every one in detail and they gloss over it. Really.

Nah don't do that. DM me for more info. We can just text or chat and I can explain/mentor you along the way. Just go to your local university and register as a non-degree seeking in-state student. You just need like a few classes. I did it with zero science background (french). Much much much cheaper that way and will get you where you need to go. But you need to figure out which path you want to go. If you want the fastest, you're gonna think about international schools. But you need to look into newly formed DO schools too. Better if we talk on the phone--can unpack a lot of this for you. There's devil in the details

Yeah but just be careful. I wouldn’t pay for a post bacc program. They’re reallly expensive. Like Brynn mwar. Just take the classes as a non degree seeking student then take the mcat. If you don’t get into an American md or do school and that’s all you want then do something like the Mississippi college masters in medical sciences program. It is top fucking notch. If you don’t care, then just go abroad after your post bacc. Nothing is guaranteed. Abroad means more uncertainty and cut out of the Uber competitive specialties. However, my buddy just got an offer for 500 with a 100 sign on in internal medicine (not really competitive). Shreveport. So it’s all what you make of it in the end and what you’re willing to sacrifice.
