Hi everyone!
I did see there was an initial thread started by @caterwaiter yet, it's unfortunate that it got initially derailed.
UQ-Ochsner does seem like a great program, and I'm personally really excited to be applying. Would love to hear updates from other applicants. How are we doing? Is this one of your top schools or more of a backup? (well, 'backup' might not be the right word given the University of Queensland is top 50 in the world)
It is never-racking deciding to be an IMG & I understand this program might not be for everyone. As for myself, I feel it's one of my top choices. Who knows what other time in my life I would have the opportunity to live in Australia, plus I do love global health & research - which it's safe to say UQ excels in. I'm at peace knowing that we will have quality clinical rotations through Ochsner. Personally, I think I might be choosing the program over low-tier MD schools in the US, although we do have the 'downfall' of being IMGs, I trust more the quality of education, research opportunities & connections at UQ.
