<p>Going to med school outside of the US (assuming you want to practice there later) is a very bad idea. Although it may be cheaper and you can attend after high school there are many disadvantages which far outweigh the advantages. NO.1 The quality of the your education will be much worse. It may be easier while you are studying but after finishing your degree you will not be in a good position to pass the US board exams. If you do manage to pass it is not very likely you will get residency there. That means you could spend 6 or 7 years (in some countries a one year internship is required) in a foreign country only to never be able to practice medicine in the US. Of course you might know somebody who studied abroad and successfully returned to the states, this is the exception not the rule The odds are against you.</p>
