I want to go to medical school in the UK


I want to go to medical school in the UK...?
I do not have my bachelor's degree, is that okay? And also, after I finish medical school there, I want to go back to the US. Is that a bad idea then? What do I have to do to work as a doctor in the US if I have a UK education? What requirements do I need to go to the UK for an education? A visa, passport...and what else? Please help. Thank you :)

There's no point in doing all of that if you just plan to come back and practice in the US. Studying medicine in the UK does not require a college degree. The students apply and enroll to study medicine in a university after high school(from which they finish around the age of 16) and after taking A levels. Medicine is an undergraduate degree over there. It will be far more expensive for an international student and I don't see the point in you doing that. You will probably still have to take the USMLE(and perhaps do over a few years of med school) when you return to the US.
