[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DC is a freshman looking at going abroad for a semester. A challenge is that they are planning on going to PA school or med school after undergrad. They've been told that all pre-pa/pre-med courses need to be taken in the US. So, they couldn't work towards that goal at all during the semester abroad, but just knock out the other credits. That seems very limiting for the other semesters. There are summer programs, but DC always envisioned spending a semester in Europe. Did your pre-med/pre-pa kid successful navigate this process? Did it require summer classes for the pre-reqs?[/quote] You can do it if planning on a gap year, but almost impossible if kid is planning to apply at the end of junior year. Over 70% of applicants now have taken a gap year, so it is doable. [/quote]
