as far as i know.....

the biomed is a normal biomed degree but then when you continue with the MD studies you will have to pay private tuition fees. you can not get state funding for the MD weather you stay in this country or not. it also only qualifies you as a medical doctor in Antigua and you would have to take many medical exams to be able to practice in the uk (you would prob have to do your foundation years in Antigua before you could apply to practice in the uk).

Northumbria uni does the same programme and the fees for the MD are around £20,000 per a semester (there are two semesters in a year) plus you have to remember that you will not be getting a loan to help you out with these fees or to live in a foreign country.

dont it this help to answer you question?
