From US pre-med to UK med school

From US pre-med to UK med school?
I am planning on doing a premed certification in the US; majoring in Genetic engineering and concentrating in forensic science. I want to become a medical examiner. I am reading that UK students go to med school immediately after high school. What should I do? Should I wait through college here? Should I transfer to a UK med school? I want to avoid being the strange, stupid, older American student in UK med schools with the UK high schoolers. I will be 20 when I graduate college-- which isn't so old. What to do?!

There are many mature students in British universities these days, and many people also take a year out between school and university - you won't be significantly "older", most of them will be at least 19. You need to check whether you even can transfer. A lot of British universities, especially the more desirable ones and the more desirable courses, simply don't take transfer students. But some do take people who already have a degree into the second year of undergraduate courses rather than the first year. You'd have to check with the individual universities that you are interested in.

First you will need GCSE grade C (or higher) in maths and English, this is a requirement for all teaching courses in the UK. A' Levels will depend on what you want to teach but I'd suggest doing subjects you are interested in and are good at. Then you will have a choice of subject degree plus pgce (teaching certificate) or teaching degree. Having a subject degree may give you more flexibility in the future, if you decide to leave the profession.

They are raised and schooled amongst the "in" circles, i guess they aren't gonna give a party leader job to some person who used to work at Tesco, but hey! it would be a change yeah?
