So I'm thinking about applying to UK/Ireland next year. I already have a BSc in physiology from McGill. I don't know much about the system over there, so I'd appreciate your answers to the follwing questions:
1. How long will the medical program be for someone in my situation?
2. Can I do my residency ad practice in the UK as a Canadian citizen, and if not, is it easy to do the residency in Canada/US as a UK/Ireland graduate?
3. Any notable differences between the UK and the Irish systems?
4. Will I have to take the UKCAT or will the MCATs suffice?
5. How hard is it to get into med in UK/Ireland as an international compared to US/Canada?
6. Someone told me a friend of theirs was a doctor in the UK, yet prefered to work in Citibank rather than practice med. Are they that desperate?
Thank you.
