Hi🙂, I’m currently in high school (U.S) and was wondering if there is anyway I can attend medical school in Spain. Spanish is my first language and I want to study in spain for med school. Is there any way I can do this? Do I get a bachelors then transfer? Or can I go right after high school...

I am not considering applying to medical school in Europe, but I have always wondered how their admissions system differs from ours.

Hello, This is my first post on here and I apologise for any typos in advance. In a nutshell, after a year of handwork, the best I could do was a 3.0 GPA and when attending the prospective dental students meetings (just couldn't handle it), everyone else was getting a 3.5+ with ease. Seeing...
