Question
Hey

I am 18 years old and have just completed my high school GCE A levels with 4 As and O levels with 7 As. I am really interested in doing medicine. But I am from Pakistan and getting into med schools here is really hard as the admission policies are unjust. Even with my A grades I was denied admission. Now i have to search for a med school abroad but the problem is i cant afford foreign med schools. Those which i can ( like in Romania etc) i am not sure whether they are recognized by USMLE and other countries. I need a course in English and one which takes high school graduates. Please help me.

PS: Can you also please recommend another career which is good paying as medicine but is cheaper to study for. I have taken Maths, Biology, Chemistry and physics in my A levels so please tell me only Science related subjects.

Thanks in advance.
