The title of thread speaks for itself:

Toledo MSBS

Pros: strong linkage into a US MD program
The comfort of staying in the US and having all my conveniences like having a car

Cons: No guarantees
Another med school application cycle (this would be my 3rd go around)

Sackler School of Medicine

Pros: Everyone matched into US residency last year
Tel Aviv is a great city
I will actually be starting medical school

Cons: IMG status (albeit it's not any typical international school) but still a hurdle
Far away from family (halfway around the world away from home)
Pro and Con: Cultural challenge of being an Asian in Israel

What should I do?

Thanks 🙂
