What path is a good path to take?

I want to go to medical or dental school. I belive I could get accepted to a US dental school, but not a medical school. Going abroad to study is fine with me, however, I would prefer to return to the US for work.

Where would you recommend to study? Four year path or six year path? How do you get loans for studying abroad?

Thanks for any help!

first...

First of all I think you need to decide which line of work you want to do: dental or medicine.

If you really want medicine and cant get into the US after one or two tries there are alternatives like the carib or europe. YOu can do a search on idividual forums for more info for each school. And you can get loans to pay for med schools in the carib (most schools in the carib).

If you want dental or do not want to leave the US well I think that will answer your question and make things easy for you since you said dental was an option.

But you need to make a decision first because they both have different entrance exams you need to prepare for.

research

Hi,
well if you cant get into a US medical school, its time to make some coffee and sit up all night searching through these forums, its what they are here for, lots of info on the carrib schools, and also europe, im sure once you sort the good from the bad, you will be attending a great medical school in no time.
