Is Japan a good place to study Medicine? Can anyone study in English in Japanese Medical Schools? Do countries like USA,UK and South Asian Countries accept Japanese degrees (on Medicine)?
I would like to hear from someone studying in Japan or someone who studied medical science in Japan and someone who is working in this field and know if they accept Japanese degrees on Medicine. TIA!
Medicine in Japan is taught in Japanese
With no japanese langauge skill, you are just better off at studying in your home country
Why would the Japanese teach medicine in English when the population speak Japanese? How would the doctors care for their country 's people?
If there is any Global Programs for International Students taught in English.As far as I know, Medicine is taught in English in Tokyo University! Thanks for the info anyways! @artloversplus
Are you enrolled at a partner medical school (in the US, I think it’s Case). They state unequivocally:
Tokyo Medical University accepts overseas students from universities with which we have a formal student exchange agreement.
I think that’s more like a student exchange thing.I am a high school student .preparing for premed, by the way
Where are you from?
Then you can’t enroll at a Japanese medical school. You would need to be in med school for the exchange with Tokyo U’s Med school. Where are you from? Why Japan?
You’re putting the cart waaaay before the horse. How about focusing on getting into college first?
In any case, for a developed country, Japan as a whole is notoriously weak in english language skills. Not the place to be looking for english-language medical schools.
Exactly.
Japaneses in general are really, really bad at English due to limited pronunciation. When I was in hotel, I had no idea what they were saying.
They pronounce coffee as Co-hui.

Haha! yeah they are terrible at English.But I just wanted to know if Medicine degrees from a Japanese University is accepted around the world (e.g: UK,USA) @paul2752
In the US and Canada you would be a foreign medical school graduate and would have to jump through many, many hoops before being able to practice in the US or Canada.
And there are far more applicants for those hoops than there are hoops. You should attend medical school in the country in which you intend to practice medicine.
It is much easier (and much less expensive) for a foreign medical grad to get through the hoops after finishing his/her degree outside the US, than it is for an international student to make it all the way through the pre-med program here, and to find admission at the very small number of US med schools that admit any international students.
