Hi All - hope everyone is well.

I was planning on taking my pre-requisites (chem, bio, phys, etc.) in a foreign country. I was wondering whether the pre-requisites would be recognized for admission to an MD program in the US.

One other thing to note, I have a Bachelor's degree from Purdue University (a US University) but am missing some of the basic science requirements.

Would appreciate your thoughts and perspective on this!

chanx,

I had looked into a similar question in the past and posted my findings in this thread about someone wanting to attend a foreign college.

It does seem like it is possible, but I would strongly encourage you to contact a few of the medical schools in which you are interested, and find out from someone on their admission's committee whether they would consider pre-med courses from a non-US college.

If you do so, please post what you find out. I don't have any experience in this area.
