It's probably impossible for you but no local media will tell you that because every school is a good school.

Going overseas is a common option:
- Australia
- UK
- Ireland

An MBBS takes about 5 years. Can you afford the school fees and living expenses?

There are other jobs in healthcare that doesn't involve being a doctor.

Haha, thanks ! As mentioned, I am toying with the idea. Given that I have a family to support as well so may just be a day dream not fulfilled. But that is an inspiring read nonetheless.
