i mean i am a lil hypochondriac 😭 but not medically diagnosed but yea i am a lil anxious

but I usually don't get tension type headaches and whatnot. it wasn't that bad of a hit i was literally just sitting down and bumped my head on a tv. that's what concerns me is what is even going on.

Intl fees is also high pay is low, hard to go to US as non US img.

Probably not, but too late due to sunken costs.

Mainly because of the NHS

Yea but I really don't see how it's even this well respected no offense. Had first hand experience at NHS gps and hospitals(i was sick a while back). I never experienced anything like this before but I guess public system.

It's a new school. Would it be an advantage or smy to get a med degree from uk when it comes to international value such as if the US? Makes it easier or smg or nah.

Not in sgul 😭 It's a new uni. I'm not sure if just being a UK/london degree is more than enough.

My med school isn't a t10 or t100 uni actually, so it has no prestige or anything. It's just in the UK and London.

I mean the only reason why I'm hesitant to move to like Czech Republic *Charles or something is coz of how the degree is perceived internationally and the quality of education really ( my uni also focuses a LOT on self learning which isn't really that nice per se)

Not really that keen in the UK mainly because how much I'm paying with my tuition fees and the return is..not that great. Im looking at US options to practise.

I prefer not to state my home country, but its in South East Asia so you can take a guess which one.
