Hey all, I hate to ask this question, but here it goes...
I'm looking for input on American vs. Aussie medical education for a *canadian*.
The debt I'm going to accrue in either place is going to be astronomical. I have a fairly large (and warranted) fear of having $200 000+ CDN in debt by the time I'm done, and I'd love any input on how you guys are handling this (if you can just simply afford to spend that, don't bother replying to this, as it won't apply to me, and won't help the sinking feeling in my gut). Really, I'm asking about job prospects after finishing in either place, and any insight I may be overlooking at this stage.
In any case, I'll say it again - opinions pertaining to *canadians*. I've heard a lot about how much easier it is for americans (in terms of getting back home to practice), but not so much about us canadians.
So, without further ado, I'll move away from this dead horse and let you guys kick it. btw, I'm applying to as many US/Aussie/Canadian schools as I can, and the only place I seem to be limited by my marks is here at home. Gotta love it.
Cheers,
M.
