  • PLAB and MRCP examinations are two important routes to obtain GMC registration for IMG doctors in the UK. MRCP offers the added advantage of being a post-graduate exam for medicine and a mandatory requirement to apply for higher specialty training in medical specialties. In this video, I have explained how to choose the most appropriate exam based on your personal circumstances.

    Hello Doctor. Hope you're well. Thank you for such an informative video.
    I completed my internship in Jan 2021 and due to covid but my PLAB 1 exam got delayed so I was able to give it this year in August. I'll be doing PLAB 2 next year in May but meanwhile can I give MRCP part 1 in my country. Does it give any added advantage during job hunting if I have cleared both parts of PLAB plus MRCP part 1.
    Can I apply for core training job through this?
    Thanks again for all the guidance.

    Sir what is the best time for an Indian medical graduate to take up the IELTS examination, who wishes to pursue his MD from India and pass the MRCP steps during his MD training. And would you kindly please list out the best IELTS resources(free and paid)

    • @SumanPaulDoc
      @SumanPaulDoc  2 роки тому +2

      The best time for IELTS is after completing MRCP. There is a time limit of 2yrs for the IELTS certificate to remain valid. To pass IELTS, you may watch UA-cam videos and practice from the free book you will get after booking the exam. British council runs IELTS courses in all major cities. Nowadays there are personalized coaching available online but I don't think it's needed.

    I am preparing for my neet pg right now. But i want to do my specialty training from UK. I plan to give mrcp or equivalent exam during my pg. What my doubt is, that can i get into speciality training directly after mrcp/mrcs, or i need to work as junior doctor for some time. I read that you require some certificates of alternative core competency to be eligible for st-3 training. How can i get that certificate. What else will be required. Lastly what are the odds of getting a specialty training in UK in cardiology/ urology aur equivalent super speciality branches. Is it tough or we can get it easily. Thanking you in advance

    Hello Dr Suman .... I graduated 1 n 1/2 year back and till then finished my compulsory rural service of 1 year ....but was unlucky in English ielts hence got a may 2023 plab 1 slot instead of this year ..... I'm frustrated over the fact that my uk residency will get delayed and there's lot of uncertainty as well .... should i change my plan of plab and write neet pg and then think of moving to uk ...after finishing my pg in India or stick to plab path ???? thank-you ...do reply

      Even if you clear the next NEETPG, you cant start residency before 2023. There is no right or wrong answer and you have to decide for yourself.your PG is of no use in uk, so why spent another 3 yrs in india?

    Hello doctor suman, thank you for your informations in the video. Please clarify my doubt... I am a nephrologist in India, recently completed my DrNB in nephrology. I was looking for fellowship trainings in uk for interventions. The fellowship sponsoring organisation mentions I should have "license to practice " in uk for training in the fellowship. Does it mean GMC registration, how can I get GMC registration? I am preparing for mrcp, only for the degree but not for working permanently in uk. Will clearing mrcp exams help me get gmc registration and license, for my fellowship. Or should I undergo training again in uk in medicine or nephrology? If so as what, like a medicine or nephrology trainee or as registrar job, and how long the training could be?. please let me know. thank you.
