Answer 1

You have the opportunity to follow your dreams; don't give them up because you are afraid. I don't know of anyone who doesn't go into debt during medical school, but they are well able to pay it off later on, and you don't need to pay off the debt until after you have graduated. It is an investment in your future.

The other alternative is that you get certified here for nursing, live frugally for a few years, and pay off the debt you already have before starting medical school. You will still have to take out loans, but you won't be starting on a base of debt. There is a tremendous need for nurses in the U.S., and the salaries reflect that.

By the way, our government has nothing to do with it, but getting into a medical school with an 85% would be impossible here too, so maybe your government just handled the function that the medical schools themselves do here.
