A、In 1849. B、In 1857. C、In 1821. D、In 1823. AWhen did Elizabeth graduate from medical school?

Elizabeth was born in England in 1821, and she went to New York City and settled down there when she was ten years old. One day she decided that she wanted to become a doctor. That was nearly impossible for a woman in the middle of the nineteenth century. After writing many letters seeking admission to medical schools, she was finally accepted by a doctor in Philadelphia. So determined was she that she taught in school and gave music lessons to earn money for her education.
    In 1849, after graduation from medical school, she decided to further her education in Paris. She wanted to be a surgeon, but a serious eye infection forced her to give up the idea.
    Upon returning to the United States, she found it difficult to start her own practice because she was a woman. In 1857 Elizabeth and her sister, also a doctor, along with another woman doctor, managed to open a new hospital, the first for women and children. Besides being the first woman physician and founding her own hospital, she also established the first medical school for women.
