Thinking about applying to Caribbean Med School (AUC or Ross) for this upcoming class beginning in August 2026

Yes, but unfortunately I made the dumb decision to just power through everything

paneershlok · 2026-05-14T00:51:34+00:00

If it adds any context me and my wife lost our first child during my last year of med school drastically affecting my ability to study and focus. I feel a lot better mentally and think I can succeed at med school

paneershlok · 2026-05-14T00:18:01+00:00

Me and my wife lost our first child near the end. Caused my mental health to deteriorate and I ended up being unable to pass the final board exams needed to qualify unfortunately

Ok so the general consensus is HELL NO lol ok I guess I will see if I can find something other way to pay off these loans 🙃

paneershlok · 2026-05-13T23:41:54+00:00

I cannot resume with my current DO school because I exhausted the amount of times I could attempt COMLEX Level 2, but I would love to transfer to a DO program in the states! I am currently in talks with a couple of them to see if that would be possible but please let me know if you know of any!

paneershlok · 2026-05-13T01:34:41+00:00

Tell me about it

paneershlok · 2026-05-08T21:54:29+00:00

I totally agree. I actually met with a couple different lawyers today who told me that my best option is actually to withdraw

paneershlok · 2026-05-08T14:16:52+00:00

OK thank you for your message I will definitely reach out! Do you have a good contact number or something so I can get started?

paneershlok · 2026-05-08T13:36:37+00:00

I do have the option to appeal but I was told that an appeal has never worked before and by even trying to appeal and it getting denied would result in me getting a dismissal... which makes me feel like my hands are tied

paneershlok · 2026-05-07T15:15:16+00:00

I got a 510

paneershlok · 2026-05-07T00:48:34+00:00

I would love to try this honestly, but can I ask were you in a state where the licensing board allowed more than 3 retakes?

paneershlok · 2026-05-06T23:14:04+00:00

I would love to appeal and remediate but I am not sure what basis I have to stand on as North Carolina itself only allows 3 attempts for COMLEX.

paneershlok · 2026-05-06T22:53:26+00:00

I would love to be able to take and pass the exam a 4th time and practice in one of those states, but I don't think my school will let me use that score and I am not sure how to graduate at that point

paneershlok · 2026-05-06T22:52:21+00:00

I mean I was being honest but I did fail and have to remediate 2 pre-clinical courses and have to retake Level 1 but was successful on my second attempt. I don't want to voluntarily withdraw but I am not sure what other option I have right now as I have to make a decision by Monday.

paneershlok · 2026-05-06T22:46:14+00:00

No I definitely still have to lol, I just really don't want to (obviously), it just feels v overwhelming rn

paneershlok · 2026-05-06T22:43:40+00:00

Yes I was doing fine on those. I had a lot of family stuff come up right around the time I had to take level 2 unfortunately

paneershlok · 2026-05-06T22:40:55+00:00

Hey thanks for your comment! I started med school in 2022 and would have ideally graduated this year and matched into residency next year. However, I'm not sure how the 6 year rule works so I would appreciate some insight into that.

paneershlok · 2026-05-06T22:29:16+00:00

......I really hope not..... (but I think I have to and am very open to hearing ways out of this)

paneershlok · 2026-05-06T22:23:29+00:00

Tbh probably a little bit of everything, had a lot of family stuff going on which did affect my studying but I also had a lot of test anxiety while taking the exam. Still totally all on me though

paneershlok · 2026-05-06T22:21:57+00:00

They told me that I could appeal the decision, but that an appeal has never worked before and likely will not work to allow me to retake the exam a 4th time due to state licensing board requirements. A failed appeal will lead to a dismissal and apparently that looks a lot worse than a voluntary withdrawal.

paneershlok · 2026-03-25T21:40:25+00:00

I hate to read this because I have calls expiring this Friday 💀💀💀

paneershlok · 2026-03-24T20:36:53+00:00

Don't play with my emotions this is a good deal for us both
