International
students
seeking
a
medical
degree
in
the
United
States
face
serious
difficulties.
There is often a language barrier. Students from non-English speaking countries could
have a hard time understanding their work or communicating with professors. Also a
medical
education
is
very
costly.
First
students
must
complete
an
undergraduate
degree.
Then
,
most
medical
schools
require
at
least
four
years
of
study.
After
medical
school,
students
need
to
do
at
least
three
more
years
of
training
in
their
specific medical fields. In addition, many medical programs at public universities in
the U.S. do not accept international students.
However, receiving a medical education in the U.S. is not impossible. Fatima Ismail is
proof. The 32-year-old from Dubai says she knew she wanted to be a doctor at a very
early age.
“
I am always fascinated by the brain and how it functions. There is a huge population
of
children
with
developmental
disabilities
that
are
not
taken
care
of
very
well
in
Middle East in general and my home country in particular.
So, Ismail complete medical education in her home country. Then, she
applied to a
residency program
实习项目

at Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland.
“
It
’
s a very competitive process. Being an international medical school graduate, you
have
fewer
chances
to
be
accepted
because
the
priority
would
be
for
the
U.S
graduates.
But
as for
that,
it
’
s not
impossible.
All
that
you need
to
do
is,
basically,
early planning.
’’

Planning
is
highly
important
for
foreign
students
seeking
admission
to
U.S
medical
schools.
School
administrators
suggest
international
students
should
apply
to
residency

in
the

after

medical
school
at
home.

they
should begin their American medical education at the undergraduate level.

Whether it
’
s your very first job or you
’
re moving to a new role at a new organization,
the
thought
of
having
to
face
a
new
environment,
new
colleagues
and
new
responsibilities can be boring. But remember, worrying about whether you
’
re able to
perform well in your new role won

t help.

Make a good impression

time
in
the
morning
is
basic.
If
you
’
re
not
sure
how
long
it
will
take
to
get
to
the
office,
consider
having
a
try
before
your
first
day.

on
your
first
morning, you can be well prepared and plan your journey properly.

new
things
to
learn.

During
your
first few days, your goal should be to concentrate on being familiar with your new
work environment and your new company

Instead of trying to look as if you know what you
’
re doing, don
’
t be afraid or feel too
uncomfortable to ask questions. After all, it

Concentrate on your performance at work
