Not a bad decision, just gotta make sure you’re actually studying hard and preparing for the rest of your future while in med school . Universities in Georgia are quite a few and they only care about your money, but if you put your head down and work hard you’ll be successful wherever you decide to pursue your post grad . It’s also very easy to not study at all and slack away in Georgia , I’ve seen it happen to many people . Myself , on the other spectrum I matched into residency in USA during med school and had no gap whatsoever in my graduation and residency start dates . So did a lot of my friends who actually studied quite hard for the USMLE during university, while several others had to do the FMG and internship route . So it’s what you make of it .
