I had a felony conviction from when I was 17 for shooting a car with a bb gun (not sure why 17 year old me thought that was funny) and I am looking to apply to a few international med schools, Ireland and UK more specifically. I know that for US med schools, my expunged conviction will not show up but I was wondering if it will show up when applying to Ireland or UK. I know my record will show up when I get my FBI background check for boards but I've been told nonviolent and nondrug related crimes are ok for boards. I've heard Caribbean schools only ask for a written background check from a local police station but I'm wondering if Ireland and the UK perform background checks that will see an expunged record. I did travel to Ireland a few years after my expungement and I was never asked about my case but I figure moving there for med school is a different story.
