A friend of mine recently completed her undergraduate studies and started preparing to Apply to caribbean medical school programs. She has been gathering transcripts, recommendation letters, and personal statement materials while researching the admission requirements of different universities. She also wants to understand application deadlines, interview preparation, and the documents international students may need. Since every school can have its own process, she is trying to stay organized and avoid missing important steps. For anyone who has applied to a Caribbean medical program, what part of the process required the most preparation? What advice would you give a first time applicant?
