Hi all.
I wanted to know your opinion on whether it's better to do medicine or dentistry as an undergraduate course ( right after high school) or is it better to do a different undergrad and then do graduate medicine
( or dentistry)?
I'm really struggling to choose between these two.
Also I'll be studying medicine or dentistry as an international student in UK or US in the future .
The other thing is that I'm very passionate about singing and being an actress and I also want to work in these fields professionally.
Initially, I planned to do medicine as an undergraduate course in the UK and then apply for residency in the US, so that I'll be doctor in a shorter amount of time; which then I thought I may be able to dedicate a reasonable amount of my time to do my passion alongside it.
My second plan, which I'm thinking about right now is to study music or drama or performing arts in the college and then apply for medicine as a graduate course for top med schools like Harvard, Yale, Oxford, Cambridge,etc or dental schools.
(I haven't decide between medicine or dentistry yet.)
But I'm really stuck between these two options.
By doing some research on the internet, I found out that some people prefer graduate medicine, because by then we become more mature and we won't lose fun college experience, which they believed is the best years of a person's life .
So in your opinion what is the best option?
Any help would be appreciated 🙏
