    Ukraine med student needs postgrad options thanks
    OKAY GUYS I REALLY NEED SOME INFO! I currently study at Kharkov National Medical uni, about to start my 6th and final year as a med student. I know now that ukraine is not part of eu and there were better options to have gotten a stronger medical degree. But i am alredy here, i got 1yr left so am looking for options. I go to all classes, u can call me a student in the 'very good' category. The thing is, I didn't start self studying until abt a year ago so a lot of my knowledge is based on the what the teachers taught me (some subjects u have a teacher who doesn't understand eng well/lazy teacher, and others u have a great teacher). So now i have to decide my future. I am thinking of studying in my final yr and taking a step of the USMLE but i am scared i may not have enough time or may not get a good enough mark. I heard i could go to another european country and do a postgrad in english if i am lucky but i don't know if that is a good idea. I have also been told i could try canadian exams or apply for Australian postgrad also after their exams. I am from an English speaking African country and i am really desperate to do pstgradute somewhere abroad preferably countries like us, uk, australia, canada, or better still europe. I heard Uk is not very advisable though. And another thig, i a not so boxed up with cash, i could afford something up to 8000$ per annum but i am still willing to listen to all options. SO GUYS I REALY NEED SOME ADVICE AND INFO CUS I M NOT VERY WELL INFORMED ABOUT OPPORTUNITIES and i don't wanna make another mistake like ukraine. PLEASE PLEASE HELP A GOOD SOUL anybody with info. I know there will be others similar to me reading these forums. Feel free to communicate, i know a lot about ukraine. Lets help each other

    In your sixth year, do as much time in the US doing rotations as humanely possible. Sit your USMLEs and go ASAP as time is running out to go to the US. Don't even bother with the UK if you didn't train in the EU, imo.
