How do Caribbean medical schools help with USMLE preparation? - Isabelle - 07-16-2025
Caribbean medical schools design their academic programs to align closely with the USMLE Step 1 and Step 2 CK content. Most schools follow a U.S.-modeled curriculum with systems-based learning, integrated basic sciences, and clinical correlations. They offer structured USMLE review courses, NBME-style practice exams, and Kaplan or Becker resources as part of the curriculum. Dedicated faculty mentoring, exam prep workshops, and early exposure to clinical reasoning help students build a strong foundation.
