• The Bridging Curriculum consists of series of problem solving exercises and clinical case studies, some in small groups settings, intertwined with the Basic Sciences and Introduction to clinical sciences. Students will apply acquired basic science knowledge to pre- clinical science topics using critical decision making techniques. They will also engage in a sequential process involving
• Acquisition and presentation of medical knowledge
• Data Interpretation
• Guided and self-directed learning activities
• Application of New Knowledge

The challenges of increased demands in the clinical curriculum and the emphasis on the integration of basic and clinical data in modern medical education necessitate the addition of a fifth trimester to the existing on-island curriculum. The inclusion of a fifth trimester with an organ-system review and expansion of the basic-clinical sciences interrelationships will better prepare our students for their clinical experiences and U.S.M.L.E. examinations.

Organ system review of the basic sciences in the fifth trimester will prepare students to meet the challenges facing modern medical education.

All students are required to demonstrate competency in the basic medical sciences before being permitted to begin clinical rotations. Competency is assessed from the University administered and required Comprehensive Exit Examination at the end of Basic Sciences program and passing the United States Medical Licensing Examination (USMLE) Step 1.

No student will be eligible for graduation until all academic requirements and financial obligations to the University have been fulfilled.

All throughout Caribbean islands (West Indies), there are more than 12 different universities List of MCI Approved Universities. The list includes American University of Antigua (AUA) managed by the most famous Indian medical University Mani pal University. All these universities prepare you to be a Medical professional to USA. However, you have to be very careful in the selection of the universities. USMLE is extremely strict on the rules on credit hours earned at various stages of the program. Spartan Health and Science University gives full 142 credit hours during the pre-medical course ensuring smooth intake during residency as per USMLE compliance

The current match ratio for resident-ship at Spartan is 82% (You need to score 230+ at USMLE Step 1 exam to ensure your PG seat in USA). The success ratio of passing USMLE exams from Spartan is more than 95% (To pass, you need only 192 Marks at USMLE Step 1 exam). It means, USMLE exams are cracked very successfully to get into the PG in Medical in USA.

Many smaller universities would put you in trouble over such important issues. There are few very low-quality universities in Granada (Only 2% success ratio for Residency) and Belize Islands (World’s highest crime recorded here, check Google before finalizing these dangerous locations!) which you must avoid going. Of course, there are far superior universities as well such as Ross Medical University / AUCMED at St Marteen or even AUA at Antigua Islands (Owned and managed by Mani pal University of India). However, these top ranked US programs costs more than Rs. 1.50 crore only towards the tuition fees! The student to faculty ratio is maintained at 20:1 at Spartan health and Science University, St Lucia as per USMLE specification to ensure high teaching standards and superb reputation among the US hospitals to get maximum calls for residency!

Currently, more than 100 Indian happy and hardworking students from different parts of India are placed by MOKSH studying at Spartan Health and Science University with an aim to do MBBS in USA. MOKSH can connect you with them or connect your parents with their parents for transparent understanding and your clarity on road map to your MBBS in USA program.

The University is approved by WHOM, USMLE, FAIMER, CAAM-HP and is highly reputed among others.
