<p>Hello All,
I am a Pre-Med student at the University of Iowa. I am currently finishing up my freshman year and I am very interested in studying abroad in Australia. Iowa offers an exchange program with the University of Newcastle. This "exchange program" means that I can go to Newcastle while paying the price of my tuition at Iowa, where I am an IN STATE resident. I was just wondering that when applying to medical schools if it really matters where you study abroad.
I also looked into the University of Sydney, which is a top 50 school worldwide, but it is also much more expensive. (The exchange tuition would be around 4,000 compared to around 15,000 for Sydney). Should I choose the school with a much more reasonable price or the school with higher prestige. Also, would I be able to take any science classes (something basic like physics 1) in Australia. I've read that they generally do notwant you to, but I was thinking that since it is English speaking that it may be different here. </p>
<p>ANY help or anything in general about these schools would be great!
THANKS!</p>
