Thanks!

Rehan you freaked me out bro. You forgot to write Dow, but I clicked on the website and its on there, and I can breathe again!

Sorry about that -- Dow has been added to the list -- good lookin' out

hey no problem you know I got your back lol

Heh how could you forget to add dow, its an old institution!!

Anyway I believe the topic should be changed to USMLE approved schools, not US approved.

yes plz rehan...tel me tel me the names of those institutions from karachi which r usmle approved...and plz i wanna ask one more thing...if i complete my mbbs 1st yr and 2nd yr from pakistan and then the rest from usa ? is it possible..inshallah if yes, wat is the criteria and how much marks or% do they demand..???i really need this info plz help me out
Allah hafiz

All the schools which are USMLE approved are listed above. Any school approved by the US is also approved for USMLE.

does anyone know if riphah international university (islamic medical college) is US approved???

wait sorry i found it in the list

i give u the sincerest advice ever offered as a fellow human being. DO NOT go to IIMC rawalpindi. this institute is corrupt to the core with wrinkly old peverted ex army staff as your professors who suffer from an inferiority complex. if u do not posses a father or an uncle who is in the military as a high ranking officer, then they will make your stay a living hell. the teaching is next to nothing, the professors tell u not to read bd chaurasia, but the entire exm comes from it. anatomy is about 75 percent of the course. physiology is taught well by the only genuine professor in the whole faculty, brig. hameed. biochem teaching is non existant with each professor reading extracts from harpers and mushtaq for 2 hrs 2 times a week!

In this institute i could not talk to my fellow female collegues, as i would run the risk of being failed at vivas etc. but army staff kids used to openly go to chinese whorehouses in islamabad and they got rewarded with rankingt positions!!!
THIS INSTITUTE IS TOTALLY BOGUS, A CORRUPT MONEY MAKING MACHINE. IF U WANT TO SAVE UR MONEY AND MORE IMPORTANTLY YOUR TIME KEEP WELL AWAY!!! THERE ARE PLENTY OF OTHER NON CORRUPT GOOD MED UNIS IN THIS PINDI ISLAMABAD AREA, LIKE SHIFA, RMC AND WAH. STAY AWAY FROM IIMC [ Foul Language Edited ]

what abt Dow International College?

If you mean Dow Medical College (the only Dow I've ever heard of in Pakistan), it's already on the list at spot #37.
