  Good medical school if you're ready to work hard.

  Do some research on this pathetic institution before you truly pursue it. In addition to a lack of cafeteria, a ridiculously small two-building campus, and exorbitant costs on the island, the school is plagued by a variety of issues. Preying on the hopes and dreams of students who had trouble getting into US med schools, the school entices applicants with misleading information. The massive dysfunction, constant changes in graduation requirements, arbitrary shelf-exam policy, and lawsuits against the institution are all highly problematic. Don't expect any of your paperwork, health forms, etc, to ever get to its final destination, because someone in the school's dysfunctional offices will lose it and claim you never submitted it. You can only do rotations at a few hospitals, and some of them are inferior learning environments that do not actually prepare students for school. Talk to the students that go there. Do a Google search for lawsuits v. St. Matthew's University, ask yourself whether you really want to go to a school that will not allow you to practice medicine in multiple states (including California and Texas). The school has a shelf-passing policy that goes against the strong recommendations of the NBME itself. Despite the fact that the NBME does not have a passing score for these subject area exams (which most schools don't even factor into your grades), St. Matthew's decided to institute a policy, whereby even missing the mean score by 1% would cause academic dismissal, somehow changing your grade for the course from a 100% to an F. In other words, the shelf exams are worth more than 100% of your earned grades. Everyone has different experiences, so this is just one point of view. Weigh your options, apply to multiple schools, and just make sure you aren't choosing this school because it was the only one that you applied to or the only one that accepted you. I know people who made that mistake and they regret it.
