Greetings forum members once again. The last 2 times I posted, it was regarding my unjust dismissal from a US medical school (if anyone wishes to know which one, PM me). As you can see if you review my prior threads, you'll see that many express doubt over my claims. Well, just recently I filed a FERPA request and got my confidential records from the school. The official decision to dismiss me after my successful completion of my 2nd year was based on "an evaluation and discussion of [my] entire academic record/progress..." This clearly rules out the possibility that I was dismissed over concerns of professionalism or moral behavior and, since I didn't fail any courses that year (I only failed anatomy my first year) and was able to register for Step 1 (until I was officially dismissed, of course), one can only conclude that the reason behind my dismissal was surreptitious and unjust, as I stated in my prior threads. I plan on again looking at legal options in the near future with this evidence but that's a different story. With the facts I stated in mind, however, please give me your advice on moving forward with the following option. After communicating with Xavier university school of medicine in Aruba and providing all pertinent pieces of evidence backing my claim they decided to allow me to transfer all of my credits from my school, basically making me a year 3 student. All I have to do is pass Step 1 and I'll start rotations (they're making me go to Aruba for 4 months if I accept to study). If I pass Step 1, finish my rotations and do well on Step 2, what are my chances in getting matched in family medicine, IM, or OB/GYN, especially with this dismissal on my record? Will they allow me the opportunity to explain the circumstances, like I did here and with Xavier? Or will that automatically X me out, unless I have a stellar, near perfect record moving forward? I have admission to a low ranking law school but they've given me 2 large scholarships and I feel confident that I could transfer next year if I grind out and score well so I'm not just asking with my mind already made up. And please no assumptions, those who are very knowledgeable of what is being looked at during the matching process please reply
