I'm half Ghanaian/half Cuban but grew up mainly around my Ghanaian side of the family. Just curious as to whether there were any other Africans out here on SDN? I guess we could all check in by stating what country we're from, program (med/pharm/dent), and school you're attending/ will be attending? I'm will be matriculating this but am waiting for some more good news before I decide where.

I think there are mostly Africans among black American med students.
 
Kenyan will apply next summer (hopefully!)
