Anyone go to med school in UAE or Pakistan that can share perspectives?

I’m a US citizen, I was going to start medical school January 2026 in the Caribbean but I can’t due to certain personal factors so it has to be pushed to August 2026- this has sort of opened up more options for me and I’d like some perspective from foreign medical grads.. Has anyone studied in the UAE or Pakistan? The UAE has some 4 year programs that I will qualify for, I’m considering it only because i can live with family and save considerable money in US student loans.. I am a US citizen so I can still come to the US for 4th year rotations including some 3rd year mandatory rotations from a couple schools I’ve looked into. Another option is Lahore, Pakistan where I also have family and don’t mind living there for 5 years. I speak the language and lll be fine.

Very curious to hear people’s perspectives on this, especially anyone from the UAE who matched in the US.

If I can avoid the Carib route I’d be thrilled, I’m not getting into a US MD or DO school so that’s out the window.
