Psychiatry and Behavioral SciencesThe 4-year General Psychiatry Residency Training Program at Meharry Medical Collegehas been designed to prepare resident physicians for the practice of psychiatry inthe 21st century. Our program is accredited by the Residency Review Committee of theAccreditation Council of Graduate Medical Education.The core of each resident's education is extraordinarily rich in clinical experiencesthroughout the years of training. Each resident diagnoses and treats a broad rangeof patients along a continuum of care, in a variety of treatment settings. Residentslearn the various roles of the modern psychiatrist - primary clinician, consultant,team-leader, and therapist - with skilled direct and indirect supervision dependingupon the level of training and demonstrated experience of the resident.Clinical work and intensive supervision are complemented by a comprehensive curriculumof didactic seminars, rounds, and case conferences. Clinical and didactic educationoccurs in multi-disciplinary settings in which there are training programs for a fullrange of mental health professionals.

No matter how much you put into it coming from a Carib-school, you'll always be thought of as a 2nd teir (likely 3rd behind DO's) applicant.The physicians who say this are the ones who are generally NOT involved in the selection/ranking of their respective programs.I could go on and on. Here's a thread with over 100 replies:While people do admit it is an option if you've really lost all options in the US, they do admit the limitations of the school and many just plain hate it.Remember, these are SGU students and alumni. If you go out of your way for a school that's NOT SGU, AUC, or Ross, you'll find many more dissatisfied customers. The attrition rates and the ability to get clinical is a mess with Caribbean schools.Add Saba, St. Matthews and AUA to the good listUp and comersSt.
JamesAll SaintsMUAWindsorXavierBut yes Clinicals with Green and Blue book status is the major issue.Cali always isonly 4 have California AUC, Ross, SGU and SABAEven at times the big four screw with you, SGU and AUC have sent students to the UK for clinicals, sounds cool but its not, if you do all your clinicals outside the US fine, if you do some outside not fine, you will have to redo in the US plus US clinicals are a big big plus to getting a US residency.Reason for US clinicals being so important? The programs know that US doctors taught and evaluated you. Simple really.Years ago I was on VMD myself all the time, its full of good information and a lot of misinformation.Be careful with what you believe.
Check everything out first.VMD is full of real students mixed with paid agents from the schools themselves, paid to watch and inform potential students and at times to write posts to discredit other schools:shock:, I know this to be a fact I caught several of these people and they were banned.At some schools the monitoring includes finding out who is posting and complaining then that student is brought into the office and at times threatened with action. Trust me these are not isolated or made up stories, I have been researching and participating in this since 2003 when I considered NP vs MD or DO.Except Cali a School needs 3 things for youWHOIMEDGreenbook CLinicalsYou have all these then its DOable!Always consider though, you should go to a Cali approved school, at 41 years old I couldn't care less about Cali, but If I was 25 or 32 I would.Oh and the the stigma stuff, comes up so little during clinicals, I think the only time is when a student is showing they lack a lot of knowledge does the school come into play. Funny but US students have been singled out as well.' What you went to PCOM?, Really? Hmm' One of the smartest students in my current rotation is a SABA student ( I'm smart but he's definitely smarter) One resident a US preliminary Surgical, did not get his position and moving on, while a SABA grad did get the spot.

Meharry Psychiatry Residency Review
School is only factor, learn that now and do not believe all the negative on VMD.At times people need a SSRI I think.or a 'Chill Pill'YOU ARE THE MOST IMPORTANT FACTOR in this, 'you can't fix stupid':mrgreen:The OnePosts: 7690 Joined: Sun Mar 05, 2006 10:37 am Location: Moderator Land. TriagePreMed wrote:Caribbean students get the scraps that US MD and DO leaveI don't think this is necessarily true. A good friend of mine just got accepted to AUC last week and could certainly have been accepted to a US school. His GPAs are great and his MCAT is average for US MD, but his ECs are outstanding.
He chose a carib school simply because he couldn't afford to wait another year to attend school (this was due to financial concerns stemming from the death of his father). Just like some people choose DO schools over MD based on non-academic reasons (philosophy, etc), some people choose carib schools over US schools as well. I would agree that the majority of students would prefer US schools, but I would hardly consider carib students as getting the 'scraps'. That line of thinking seems highly elitist and non-pragmatic to me.Premed ModeratorPosts: 373 Joined: Sat May 15, 2010 2:53 pm Location: Mobile, AL. TriagePreMed wrote:That is completely false.

Just because you might have an exception here and there doesn't make it a rule where you can accomplish the same as everyone else.1. Based on what?2. Triage I'm not making things up please refrain from calling me a liar3.
Caribbean students do match and do get good residencies just look at the big 4 websites where last years Match results are partially listed.Making statements without evidence is meaningless and if you plan on joining us in medicine then you need to learn to base your statements as facts or opinions. Facts must have evidence, opinions are based on experience not on what you heard, what you hear is anecdotal and meaningless.I have facts and can name over 100+ Caribbean grads I know from Program Directors, to Family practice Doctors, to Current and future (matched already) residents. Just at Union memorial Hospital, one hospital in Baltimore MD, there are at least 10 to 15 Caribbean and FMG grads. That is just one Hopsital, I've been to others and seen the same, there are more FMG's (Caribbean grads are FMG's) then believed, remember FMG's make up 40% of the Doctors in the USA.Thats not 'Scraps', in fact this is really not a great statement to make about Doctors in general its condescending:.The OnePosts: 7690 Joined: Sun Mar 05, 2006 10:37 am Location: Moderator Land.
