As much as I know, you cannot do residency in Germany with A1.
Suggestion: Get admitted into that course or any other medical related course for M. Sc and you continue the German language studies alongside. Hopefully around C2, You should be able to fit in and do whatever...
"My suggestion{s}..Dont forget"

Thanks for the reply @DANNIEmore. Actually I'll be graduating in June and by then I should have my B2 certificate. That's why I'm looking for a six month hospitation, before applying for residency. So I get to study the language more during that period. I need some who's quite fluent with the German language to help communications communicate with the hospitals or do you think they'll respond if I contact them in English.

Halo everyone
Been silently following this thread for a while and it's been very informative and interesting.
My post is directed to you guys currently living in Germany.
I'm a final year medical student in Russia. I'm planning to do my residency in Germany after graduation which is in June 2015.
I'm aware I have to apply for an 'hospitation' program, which is basically a program where you get you shadow a physician[color=#770077][/color]. It's a bit difficult finding a hospital from here since my German is still at the A1 level.
I was thinking of applying for an M.Sc in infection biology and then look for hospitals while I'm I'm Germany. My question is
1.Would I be able to convert my student visa to a working visa just in case I eventually find a job.
2. Is there anyone who has a doctor friend, who can help me in finding an hospitation.
I appreciate your urgent replies

Vielen Dank
