Hey guys,
Is there any particular advantage of applying to American Schools as opposed to Canadian Schools? I have heard a few rumours, but I would like to confirm. Please tell me if my pros and cons are correct/incorrect.
PROS:
- The curriculum of American school is based off of Step I. That is you will be taught to do well on the test. This is not the case in Canada.
- There are more residency spots in the U.S. so it is easier to obtain something more competitive. (i.e. Dermatology residency).
CONS:
- Way more expensive.
