How do become an American student?

Question

I am in the UK and about to study Chemistry,Biology or Molecular Medicine (Degree level). I contacted several American Medical schools and they all said they require there students to study there Pre-Med courses in the US.

My plan is to do the first year of Uni (as a back-up) and at the same time apply to the states with my A-Level Results for Chemistry or Biology over there for the following year.

Would that work?

Answer 1

Why would you want to do that? You'll spend twice as long doing medicine in the US than in the UK. I think the Pre-Med course alone is about four years. This is the process to become a doctor in the US: Pre-medical

Med school

Sub-internship

Internship

Residency

Fellowship

Board certification

Licensure

Continuing medical education

Seems like a lot of hassle to do all that in the US when you could do it in less time in the UK.
