I have always known what I wanted to be as an adult. I want to be in the field of medicine. Have I narrowed it down to exactly what profession in the field? Nope! But I am exploring and learning about options and hope to have it nailed down to the best option for me as soon as possible. Where to go to study? My focus on schools is beginning to be in the country of Portugal. Portugal offers a strong education for medical students. The country is rated 4th overall in health and lifestyle in the world. To put that in perspective, the United States is ranked 136 in the same categories! I have the drive and the ambition to look at studying abroad. I am finding that the requirements are just as rigorous and demanding as those of the United States to become a medical student. I am just beginning to explore the options and what is expected of me, this article is a start for me.
