[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t know about MD foreign students, but in most stem programs foreign students come in with at least two years of grad school preparation before starting their PhD’s from scratch. This accounts for much of the “brilliance” of foreign students. [/quote] Probably true that many of the foreign MDs coming into residencies have already been practicing doctors for a while. They have to do the USMLEs first, which they probably don't have time to study for until they finish their MD program in their country.[/quote]
