  1. I assume English is at least your second language (pardon me if I am wrong, but I based this assumption on your name and the fact that you're writing in the English version of Yahoo! Answers), and I shall base my answer on that.

    Frankly speaking, if you're going to study medicine, it is best that you consider studying it in a language you're at least pretty good at. If your first language is Malay or Urdu or another non-English, non-European language, it is perhaps best for you to study medicine in your native country in your native language. Otherwise, a medicine course in English is perhaps your only option.

    If you're looking at Europe, it is a pity, but only universities in the British Isles (including Ireland) use English as their medium of instruction for medicine. The French, Germans and Italians are too proud to teach themselves medicine in English. There's absolutely no point (not to mention almost impossible within a short time) in picking up a European language just to study medicine in Continental Europe.

    In Asia, the only countries that use English as their medium of instruction in universities are former British colonies - notable examples include Hong Kong and Singapore. I am not sure about Hong Kong, but don't bother coming to Singapore to study medicine unless you're prepared to become a citizen and live here forever - foreigners hardly ever get into medical school here.

    I'd still recommend the United Kingdom (schools like ICL, Cambridge, Oxford, etc) as a destination if you're keen on doing medicine. Otherwise, if you are somehow fluent in Japanese, or some other language the countries in which the language is the official language can be viable destinations as well.

    For me, I'm considering medical school in Japan. I don't like the idea of living in Anglophone countries in general, so I'm forced to re-learn whatever I've been doing in school these twelve years in Japanese. Good luck on your search - and I hope you won't end up suffering like me.
