I am a graduating high school senior stuck at a fork on this wonderful road to medical school.
I am trying to decide whether to:
- Stay in US-based university for my undergraduate degree then apply to a US-based medical school as most people do
- Study abroad in Japan through the Monbukagakushou (MEXT) Scholarship for my undergraduate degree then upon return to the US, apply to a US-based medical school
- I am a born American citizen
- I have a pre-paid 4-year tuition in my state (Florida)
- In the MEXT Scholarship the Japanese government pays for my entire education and then some.
- Semi-fluent in Japanese
- Japanese accreditation of their universities is fickle considering the government is pretty centralized with its hand in all levels of education and its approval.
Any knowledge or advice is accepted please.
Thank you 🙂
