Question. I was wondering if someone can fill me in on the basics of the US vs. UK medical training/career pathway.
I am thinking of doing my postgrad training (my residency) in the UK but not sure if there a direct equivalent in the UK or how that process goes. I know most medical courses in the UK are 5/6 years. Are the years after that equivalent to the US residency?
Also, does anyone know how loans transfer if I were to do my postgrad in the UK? Could I defer my loans like I would be able to defer my loans in residency here in the States?
