[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Where does she plan to practice medicine?  [/quote]

In the US. The plan is to apply for residence here.[/quote]

If that falls through, would she be willing to practice in the home country or another country that imports doctors? [/quote]

no, not really. she doesn't hate it, but very much prefers to work and live in the US. she is a bit of a miser, and obviously, the cost of schooling is very significant even if she weren't. it's also a shorter program (6 years total) that starts after high school, with only one admissions cycle.[/quote]

Is she certain she can get a residency in the US? It seems hard to believe she’d be 6 years past high school and be allowed. Or that those credentials would “count” in the US[/quote]

we are not doctors. we do know some people from croatia who did this as immigrants. i.e. born there, went to school there, then applied for residency in the US etc. it seems to have worked for them beautifully.

the difference is, she is an american kid. i am also worried to let her live alone there. she would not be on campus, it's a different system, the exams are very demanding, there is no campus life, advisors, no sense of community, sport teams etc. there are also no general requirements or fun classes, it's all science and medicine. these are their first year textbooks (in english):
