[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you get an MD abroad won't it be harder for you to practice in the states?[/quote] It will be very hard to get a residency spot, so technically yes. [/quote] I know three peers from undergrad who did this and did fine with residency. The first was a very strong student and got into some lower / mid tier med schools and instead opted to go to Israel (he’s an Orthodox Jew so there is a connection) for medical school. He placed into a top US residency for ER medicine. Two other friends went to school in the Caribbean, which is sort of a last resort, but they both did fine. One who was a very meh student undergrad did a internal medicine residency in Florida and is doing fine as a GP. The other did a surgery residency in Arizona and then a decent fellowship in surgery also in arizona. [/quote]
