Whether in Europe or the United States, going abroad is the fastest way for most China students to break their doctoral dreams. Even in Africa, medicine is the most competitive discipline in the world. Needless to say, the United States has the most difficult medical school admission system in the world. Europe has different systems, but the competition is equally fierce. Students who use their own language may not take advantage, let alone students from China. Pharmacy is better. Although it is not a golden rice bowl, it is also a silver rice bowl. Therefore, we have absorbed many excellent talents, including a considerable number of students with broken doctoral dreams, and the competition is very fierce. Although the employment market for pharmacists has increased in proportion to the population, the demand for students graduating from the best schools is still in short supply due to the surge of universities offering pharmacy majors in the United States and Europe, and the graduates from poor schools are already flooding, so graduates of pharmacy departments have begun to find employment difficulties, which was unimaginable more than a decade ago. The same phenomenon is more serious in the job market of law school graduates.

Whether it is to obtain a medical or drug license, the procedures in each country are different, and even the academic system is completely different. The European system is a high school graduation application. After graduating from medical school for seven to eight years, I began to practice and divide subjects. The American system is to apply for university graduation. Medical school lasted for four years, and then began to practice and divide subjects. A few schools in the United States open a small number of places and adopt the European system for high school students to apply, that is, BA/MD in the United States. All systems require a series of qualification examinations, and only by passing all the examinations can you obtain a doctor's license. The pharmaceutical education system in Europe is not much different from that in the United States, but it is also diverse. Pharmacist licenses in the United States vary even from state to state. If you move from one state to another, you must get a pharmacist's license again, as do licenses issued by European countries. Even people in the industry, it is difficult to find someone who can give you a comprehensive answer.

Europe and the United States have different academic systems, different application procedures and different qualification examinations. MCAT/PCAT is committed to the United States and requires university courses. The European system is applied by high school graduates, so there will be no demand for MCAT/PCAT. In addition, the weight of high marks in the MCAT exam is far lower than that of ordinary China students when they apply for medical schools in the United States. I don't know how many times I fail to apply for medical college with MCAT scores every year. Just like getting a high score on the SAT, it is impossible to apply to an American university without other advantages.

If medical schools in the United States are the first in the world in terms of teachers, equipment, funds and students, there will probably be no objection. Because AMCAS, a professional organization in the United States, has strict and unified norms, the doctoral training between the best schools and the worst schools will not be too far away. More importantly, AMCAS strictly controls the number of medical schools, which is the best way to ensure quality. There is no such strong organization in Europe, so the best medical school in Europe may not be much worse than the best medical school in the United States. However, the standard of medical schools in Europe may be far less tidy than that in the United States. In recent years, many Asian students like to go to medical schools in eastern European countries because it is easier, but it also leads to overuse. Therefore, if students have the same conditions, entering the American system will definitely be more competitive. At the same time, American doctors are well paid and often attract doctors from Europe and Asia. However, due to the high threshold and language barrier, not every foreign doctor can successfully change the runway and enter the American medical system.

As for the school you asked at the beginning, it is better. Of course, America is Harvard, University of Pennsylvania and Johns Hopkins. Britain is Oxford and Cambridge, France is Paris University, Germany is Berlin University, and there are nearly 30 countries in the European Union. What does the first choice of each country mean to you? Although it is good to have a dream, you should also think clearly about the possibility of practice, and then you should think clearly about where you plan to develop. Whether it is medicine or pharmacy, these two roads are not only difficult to take, but also difficult to change direction once you start, so you have to think about it.
