I was being light hearted :P

Anyway, I think it's a two-sided issue, it's not fair to reject all OTDs because like there are some doctors who want to genuinely want to move to Australia. I think honestly it's not a massive issue. They're paying heaps of money to get their medical education overseas. The issues which come along with that pathway such as AMC, registration and employment issues...etc. will essentially be the downfalls to such a path.

all good :) i agree, with your opinion both pathways have there ups and downs. OTD's may have a shorter path but employment and job hunting is going to be tough for them. Aussie grads have a good education and better employment opportunities but a longer path and also one that requires much more hard work.

Seems alright i guess.
