Hi guys, so I have a year off from med school and I'm not sure what I want to do with it. I definitely want to go abroad, but I was thinking I might be able to do something that'll look good in residency interviews too. A few things that came to mind are:
MPH abroad (like LSHTM or Oxford's program provided I'm accepted)
Research at a European medical school/center
Peace Corps
I'm not too sure about the Peace Corps though because I was hoping to be in a bigger city, and European one at that. I'm short on ideas but I know that there are several programs that might serve the purpose. The purpose being indulging my desire to travel/live abroad for a year while also not totally wasting my time.
Anyone have any ideas or experiences with this? Other options are greatly appreciated. I was approaching my options from the perspective of their utility in residency applications.
Thanks a lot!
