Hi,
I don't know where exactly to post this but I figured people applying for or in residency would be better to answer this question of mine.
So I am in a medical school in India called Manipal. I went to India over Caribbeans because I thought it would give me better clinical experience and make me a better doctor. But I have just found out how important US clinical experience is.
I am wondering if it is better for me to drop out of my first year of medical school here and take the MCAT and apply for the Caribbeans since they do have US rotations. I am really confused cause I have flipped flopped around a lot and if I leave school in India and try for the Caribbeans I will waste atleast a year maybe two.
Basically is it worth me dropping top medical school in India and attempting to join a Caribbean Med School. Will my chances of getting residency in US be much better if I do this. Thank you all for your help.
