If you go to a Romanian medical school, you will not only learn nothing, but you will also have to pay to pass exams... it is called bribe! and most of the professors require it, otherwise they would not pass you. People, no matter how desperate you are DO NOT GO TO MEDICAL SCHOOL IN Romania!

If you are Health worker it does not mean that you can write things which you totally do not understand!
First of all I am GP and worked in your blessed country few years.
I saw so many cases of acute tonsillitis,pharyngitis and laryngitis,that I do not want even discuss it.
I truly believe(my experience is 14 years in ER),that if Americans would drink less ice-tea and put ice everywhere,will be much better for them.
About children,I really advise you to take a look at your American children-every 3rd has bronchial asthma,every 2nd-diabetic ,almost 45% of population "lives"on antidepressants,has attention deficit,bulemia,anorexia and wears diapers until 7.y.o.So on your place I would close your mouth and would not comment other people traditions and rules.
By the way if you are so against methods in MY country,why the hell you came here?
Go back to your God blessed country and stay there!
Also in regards to medical education.
I had "luck" to work with American nurses and what I understood,that education for nurses is very primitive,in spite that they proudly writes some titles,they can not elementary to do simple procedures.One nurse can do only one procedure,if she needs to do let say IV infusion,she calls another one etc.Our nurses can do everything and it is pleasure to work with them!
Cheers.

However, the education increases exponentially in the US, whereas it seems to just level-off in Romania and across most of Europe (this is a widely known fact). Somehow, medical education really fell off in Romania.

Hello,
Unfortunately there are many of our collegues& also people form the outside that "help" interested young boys& girls to get admission to Romanian's medical schools and charge them with up to 5000$ for their services.
I am a medical student in 4th year in Oradea ( romania ), representative of the students body and member of the faculty's council, and I experienced a lot of trouble with those agents of whom the majority doesn't even have a contract with the University and they have no influence on the registration process at any time!
So please, if you are interested to start medical school in any country over the world, contact the desired University directly and don't pay any money to anyone!!
Registration fee in my Uni is 200 and the study fees are 1.200 for EU-citizens and 3.600$ for non-europeans. Not more, not less.

WOW. Take a breath.I want to go back to my home country Romania for medical school my mom worked as a doctor there I have dual citizenship Canadian/Romanian and Im wondering how hard is it to get into the United States for a residency program Im interested in Cardiology maybe but just in general can you give me and other information about non-US citizens applying for residency in the United States? I know that for my mom it was really hard to get accredited in Canada and she ended up working as an ultrasound technician and is now planning on going back to Romania to open up her own fertility clinic.
Hi again I was checking MCAT forum and looked around and saw your post.. agree very much by the way.. but may I ask a question: in general we had an impression that in the English programs of E-EU med schools, the clinical experience is too weak that the graduates were coming out without proper clinical skills, and I was reasoning this with lack of native language practice of the foreign students.. you know, if you cant talk in Romanian, how can you communicate with the patients correctly? But you say that Iasi is by that regard better than US schools, at least some of them.. how can you handle the language barrier and take history for instance and be active in clinics? Can you (not only you, but in general the students you observe) learn Romanian language easily, or do the stuff in clinics help all of you? Or is it your personal chance to have support from the stuff?
This clinical experience point has always been a problem in my mind :/
yes alot of things changed dramaticly in Romania , i am half Romanian half Syrian ,but i lived almost all my life in Romania , in the early 2000 , medicine was a joke here and everybody bribed and passed , but since 2007 and especially after joining the E.U , things changed, some known professors got sued-fired- etc... ... , about 60% of foreign non studying students(who thought they can bribe) have failed and got kicked out , even with 7k euro ,for a single exam,it didnt work , the rules now are You Study , You Pass . although i feel sad to see alot of students who still believe Romanian education is still the same as the 90's and early 2000's , some foreign rich students are still coming here to Romania and FAIL to pass and the rule is you fail 2 times,you get kicked out , but hey there is still Private Medical schools here ,which you dont even have to go to the university and you still pass with full 10/10 )) , so those who come to bribe at a respected med school like Carol davilla , fail to bribe and then if they dont study ,they fail to pass,then if they fail for the 2nd time,they get kicked out, then go back to their country OR apply to a private med school and they pass with honors there )))) or go to other cities in Romania where the system is still corrupt, but now Bucharest-Cluj-Iasi , they are the best and they are improving , the nice thing here is from the 3rd year you start to learn everything in hospitals on actual patients ,see everything yourself ,you can enter to an operation room,stand next to the surgeon and learn directly, so this experience is uncomparable to anything else, >Some< professors have alot of experience and are well known and teach very good, i am only talking about Bucharest-Iasi-Cluj , the rest of the country are still living in the 80's . now i am sorry i wrote too much,but i had to say something.

Hi everyone, in response to a generally bias view on the Romanian med school programme for English students, I'd like to inform you that there's 2 sides. I studied in Iasi. qualified in 2004. on a whole i did receive a fair medical foundation however what the Romanian system lacked (and this goes for other EU countries too) is a thorough clinical approach. As expected, medicine is all about being practical. practical training is not introduced as it is in my home country, South Africa. Luckily for me, every vacation away from Romania was spent in SA in a government hospital, learning practical skills. I know that other EU countries also experience this lack of "hands-on" approach as i met many EU visiting students at hospitals in SA doing elective work, much like myself.
Wrt corruption, sure it was there. Highly present in our 1st year. But if you studied and knew your subject, you will pass.
The med course to some extent is very laxed when it comes to foreign students, so it is totally up to you as a student to dedicate a few hours to studying. Good Luck if you're interested in pursuing a medical degree in Romania.
(on a side-note...gotta say..ps: Inna rocks Romania!! )
