Hi.
I am a green card holder who is about to graduate from BS Nursing from the Philippines. I intend to go into medical school in the US since I want to practice medicine there.
Now, I know that I need 60-90 undergrad credit hours to be eligible for medical school but I have no idea how the system works. I mean, do I just get my premedical classes from college? Like pick them out? Or do I have to go into a structured program?
I also heard that I could transfer my credits from my degree to a school... How do should I do that if I want to take all my pre-requisites in the US?
I hope that I don't have to take another undergrad though :\
I sent an email to one post-bacc premedical course and asked how to be eligible and I was told that I need atleast 90 undergrad credit hours to apply. How long will taking 90 credit hours take?
I'll be staying in California most probably but I'm welcome to moving for education 🙂
Thank you for helpful responses 😀
