I was speaking to an AUC rep. so long as you pass your step, AUC takes students from poland no problem. Kinda of a nice option actually... do your 3rd year cores in the states. Of course transfers never look very nice i guess.

As for polish doctors i would say the majority speak english better then average; a few even had american accents that i have encountered. Thats in Poznan though not in Danzig, Krakow teachers from my limited time with them also spoke very well. thats not always the case in your cores in the first 2 years though.

in your rotations you are actually pseudoexpected to speak polish, but chances are 2/5 of the students speak polish anyway, so its no problem for non speakers, maybe later it matters more, i guess you would get more out of it. But plenty of people come through without polish.
