You can’t attend med school in the US; after you’ve qualified in your country you can prepare the American qualifying exams but that means you need to perform academically (and not anger anyone who needs a bakchish) for the next 6 years.
Look into French universities - you’ll have to retake your first year and succeed in the two competitions (weed out finals week in December, final competition in June. Only 16% are selected, 50% are allowed a second year for a retry.) But if you passed your 1st year with a 14 you should be okay. Tuition is something like $250 per year, of course you have to pay for room and board etc and that’s quite costly but manageable.
There are also French-speaking programs in Romania which are a bit more costly but are easier to get into.
For the UK you’d need to register with UCAS this September and have a statement in English about your experience in the medical field (plus grades of 14-16 in math and science for your bac).
