    please answer me... iam a medical student in
    my third year in Russia. is it possible to
    transfer my university to the UK, and still be
    able to start at my third year? Without going
    back to the start.

      We have videos about how to do internship in the UK but unfortunately have no information related to switching universities.

    Hello doctor,
    Thank you for filming the video, and I want to ask a question.
    I will be grateful for any reply!
    Can I have work experience when I apply to the UK foundation program? I heard that applicants would be considered over-experienced if they have too much work experience when they apply to the program. Is that true?

    Hi Drs ar NHS thanks much for informing us about UK FP program. I am an IMG and really wanted to do. I have been stuck for awhile just to get into US. I have successfully passed my USMLEs. I am really worried about the date of graduation as of 2015. Is this going to be a barrier getting GMC registration and into the UK FP year1. That's what I want to do. I have been working as a medical officer to keep up my medical practice. Kindly consult us about this. Thanks much!

    I feel like I'm losing my mind because I am unable to find any deadlines or application handbook to apply for the upcoming year 2023. Oreil will not let me make an account saying that the deadline for 2021 has passed but what about the dates for 2022?? There is no guidance related to 2022/2023 FY1 On oreil or BMC website. Does anyone have answers??

    Hi..that was a very informative video..as always...congrats. I have a query which of course is not related to this video. Suppose a doctor in a non training st3 post takes up gp training which commences at st1 level....will the doctor be able to draw the same salary as he was drawing while on the previous st3 job or will it decrease..in other words is there any option to claim pay protection.

    • @RoadToUK
      @RoadToUK  2 роки тому

      There would not be pay protection in this case.

      Unclear. Currently all posts across the NHS are equally accommodating to IMGs, and the NHS is still very short of doctors.
