Hi guys i need some advice, i'll be 21 when i graduate with electrical engineering degree in prestigious university (highest ranked in the country) but my gpa isn't really competitive outside uk and us. i have 2 options
1. i want to study medicine in US and have residency there, but a pre med undergraduate is required. thus, with my degree i'm not eligible yet. i want to take postbaccalaureate in us then it'd take about 1 or 2 years. how important is it to enroll the post-bacc in high ranked uni such as Columbia and NYU as will it affect my admission to the medical school? because i don't have a competitive gpa so it'd be so hard to be accepted in the good post-bacc.
2. will it better if i go to med school in uk, but it takes 6-7 years if i enroll in the undergraduate program. but then my prev gpa can be ignored and they will only see my A-level. i have a competitive A-level score (A*A*A) thus, getting into good uk med school will be possible. but then they have Foundation 1,2 before residency so, it'd take me longer to be a surgeon.
actually my aim right now is postbacc NYU >> NYU med school (accelerated program), but i doubt i can get in. is there any experience in postbacc NYU?
i don't really mind with high cost of study.
your advice or any recommendation will be so much appreciated!
