Hi All,
Recently I become U.S. citizen, from a foreign country, non traditional applicant.
My background: a foreign bachelor degree, U.S. Master degree in Computer Sciences, pre med prerequisites(GPA:3.98) taken from a NY state school; Volunteered at Emergency Department for more than 150 hours; Shadowed Emergency Attending for 50 hours. etc
And I have a full time job as programmer for a couple of years in NYS, while serve in U.S. Army Reserve.
But I am thinking if it's a good idea for me to move to in state favorable states like Mississippi, etc or even Texas while still maintain my NYS job to gain in state resident and boost my chance of getting into state medical school. Because state schools like Texas Medical schools favor more in-state applicants as well as someone who has a military background.
Any advice would be appreciated.
