I'm not sure if this is the right place for this type of question and please accept my apologies if it isn't. If this indeed is not the right place it'd be greatly appreciated if someone can point out where I should be posing this type of question.
Now off to the real head scratcher --- My wife is a MBBS student in Bangladesh and she's in her final year of med school. The next step would be a year long internship. We're trying to figure out whether that internship part is necessary to complete since she's a permanent resident and doesn't intend to practice in Bangladesh. I've searched through the forum and haven't really found any straight forward answer. Some threads are very insistent on doing the internship, while others suggest skipping the internship and start focusing on the USMLE step 1 prep.
What should we be focusing on now? Is the internship necessary? Also, will she be considered as foreign student come residency time even though she's a permanent resident?
