I'm currently doing a Bachelor of Biomedical Science and I plan on going onto post-grad medicine. I intend on moving to the UK at some point (to live there permanently) but I am unsure as to *when* I should do this. I am an Australian and EU citizen (Irish) but have lived in Australia my whole life.
1. Move to the UK after I complete my Bachelor degree. I can't afford to pay for med school as an international student, so I guess I'd have to wait 3 years and then apply, but this isn't really ideal... It means that I probably won't graduate from med until I'm 30 and then there's the residency...
2. Complete med school here, and possibly do my residency in the UK. Is this possible? This option sounds good to me but I'm not sure how realistic this is.
I don't want to have to complete both med school and residency training here in Australia because then I'd have to repeat my residency in the UK and it would just be a big waste of time. What is the best option for me?
