Medicine in Italy then F1 doctor in UK?

Unfortunately even with a 2800+ UCAT and A*A*A* at A-Level I still can't seem to get into med school in the UK. After researching other opportunities I came across Italian med schools and will likely apply there. Before I do though, I have some unanswered questions:

•

If I were to study in Italy (a 6 year course with a MD when graduating) would I be able to come back to the UK and start as a F1 doctor? (I have looked at the GMC and it does look like it though some sources say that you need to complete a 1 year internship after the 6 year degree then apply for F1??)

•

Has anyone here studied in Italy (preferably La Sapienza) and can give me an honest review of the quality of education?

Thank you to anyone who can help :smile:
