Q3. I am doing my 3 rd year MBBS in AP, I wish to pursue my higher studies abroad. Could you get me the cost of education, examinations required and the other procedures. And also I want to clarify whether there are any management seats.
Nandhini Charanyaa.
Medical education in any country that one has to go through, after MBBS, entrance tests such as USMLE for USA, for which India has no center. One has to go to USA or Singapore to right this exam. Proficiency in linguistic assessment board exam is for UK. It is a three-part exam, of which only the first written part can be taken here in India and the remaining two parts involving practical and viva to be taken in UK. Be aware that there are no management category seats in any of the Medical Colleges abroad.
