Saba University, Ross University, St. Matthew's University and similar US-style MD programs require significant pattern adjustment for NEET-PG & INICET — the focus shifts from USMLE-style cases to NBEMS-style direct recall + clinical correlations.
Indian-origin students typically enrol at the universities below. These are recognised under the NMC FMG Licentiate Regulations 2021 for NEET-PG & INICET eligibility, but always verify current status on the official NMC portal before applying — recognition lists are updated periodically.
NEET-PG & INICET is calibrated to the Indian MBBS curriculum. Caribbean medical education has its own strengths but typically under-covers a few NEET-PG & INICET-critical areas. Plan extra study time for:
These subjects consistently rank lowest in mock-test performance for graduates from Caribbean (St. Kitts, Dominica, Aruba). Allocate 20–30% extra time to them in your preparation plan:

Based on the typical curriculum gaps, Caribbean graduates most often struggle with: Forensic Medicine, Community Medicine (PSM), Medicine (Indian context). We recommend allocating 20–30% extra study time to these subjects.
The main gaps are: Indian disease epidemiology (TB, malaria, kala-azar); Indian Forensic Medicine and Community Medicine; NBEMS pattern (vs USMLE Step 1/2 style). These are the topics most commonly tested in NEET-PG & INICET that are under-emphasised in Caribbean medical curricula.
