I'm applying for 2003 entry to the 6-year Irish meds...
Does anyone know of any reason why I should NOT include in my application essay the fact that I am a dual Canadian-British citizen?
I'd assume that this might help set me apart from other applicants; I can work in the EU with no hassle, and have the option of staying and practicing in Ireland after I graduate with relative ease (*I think*)
The only drawback I can think of would be if my status could change from International to Home student after 3 years in the country. Does anyone know about this? I'm pretty sure I wouldn't want to emphasize it if this is the case, since it means that after 3 years the schools would be making less money off of me than they would off another, otherwise comparable student.
Just want to make sure that if I include this tidbit, it will be working for me...not against! Any opinions or suggestions are welcome
Cheers
