all med school does is prepare you for the boards. a more difficult school would be to your benefit in the end. and usually foriegn schools are lightyears ahead of american schools.
he's right. all i need to do is pass the courses offered, than i can take the board here. both my parents did it. so i think i can. also, the school there is a little more stricter. it's almost like going to high school all over again. class starts at 9 and ends at 5. no night classes or weekend classes. the big difference with kids who go to college here and in the phillippihnes is that many college students also have jobs. in the phillippines, they don't get jobs until they are done with school. too many distractions here for me.
in all honestly, i don't know exactly where the schools in the phillppines rank, but i know it's one of the best in cebu and my dad has many classmates all over the US practicing. so it must be decent
btw, if you ever go to the phillippines, just go to the big cities because they all know how to speak english. it's kinda strange but hey, at least you can understand them.
as far as vactioning there, all you just need to be careful and know where to go don't go to the ghetto and watch out for your belongings. the part i'm going to aren't muslim extremiast, most are catholic.
also,from what i hear, if you are a us citizen, all the girls will be all over you. sounds shallow, but i heard this from many people, even the dean at one of the colleges. also, everything is relatively cheap there. taxi rides are the most $2, dinner will probably cost you $10 for a whole family, and expensive hookers will probably cost you know more than $30.... don't ask me how i know
the big ornage tank will make an appearance, not in tip top shape but running. i won't do anything crazy until i get back :P
