I'm currently a sixth form student in Jamaica currently interested in becoming a medical physicist. However I know that before you do medical physics in a graduate program you need to do physics first. I have been doing some research about some good physics schools in North America. Some of these are McGill, U of T, UFL, duke, university of California, MIT. Can you tell me about the possibilities of going to one of these schools
as an international student based on environment, classes, facilities, boarding, etc? Any other top schools I should look at? Any help would be nice :)
