[QUOTE="Diabla, post: 19359212, member: 882777"] I have wanted to study in Italy ever since I was 13. I'm 21 now, so it is a pretty big life goal though I don't want to stay there for the rest of my life. Its taken me time along with a failed career path to find out what I want to do, but I've decided I want to become a psychiatrist. From my understanding medical school in Italy is 6 years, and you do not need a bachelors degree(Italian bachelor degrees are 3 years) to enter. Residency is around 5 years. In USA you need a 4 year bachelors degree, 4 years of medical school, and then 4 years of residency. I have heard that it is hard to get a USA residency when you come from a foreign school, but that your chances are better depending on what you are going to become. Supposedly psychiatry is one of the easier ones to get a residency in. Basically I was wondering if I would be better off getting my bachelor degree in Italy and going to medical school here in the USA, or if I should take my chances with medical school in Italy and try to get a USA residency once I graduate?
