How to study medicine in the USA?

Study Medicine in USA?

  • I have passed 12th std with very good marks. I am planning to study Medicine in USA. I know there is some MCAT test to enter. I want to know can I appear MCAT and what is the probability of getting admission (% of International students getting admission)

  • Answer:

    well as an indian medico trying to get into US i can advise..well you need to graduate before MCAT and graduation takes 4 yrs in US and Indian postgraduation is taken as equivalent of graduation as Indian grad course is only of 3 yrs. It is very expensive and time consuming as you see...it will be 8 yrs before you graduate as MD...an easy way out though not an ideal way is to join residency straight away after MBBS which is regarded as equivalent of MD in USA, if you pass MLE...anyway i know why you posted here..the schools in India do not have the faintest idea about any career options in US..you may ask me for any further guidance

You cannot take the test right now because you're high school student. You have to finish the pre-medicine program (3-4 years as undergraduate school, majoring in biology or chemistry or Microbiology...). Then take the MCAT at the end of your 3rd year in college. So, just take time to apply for undergraduate school in U.S first.
