Well done and best wishes for your CT. I am a psychiatrist from India, can you please make a video on MRCPsych - scopes and cost analysis (you do them well :-)).
Hi there!! Your videos are quite productive to us. Thank you for that. I'm a 3rd year Medical Student and I want to know about how should I approach for attaining Sports Medicine in the UK? What should I do? Please help me out through this!!😁
Its still quite early for you at this stage, I am actually in the process of making a video for how you can study for PLAB exam. But i believe at this stage , just focus on developing a strong foundation in the core medical subjects , anatomy, physiology , pharma etc. Coz as you come to your latter years it will help you in your clinical which will then help you crack all these medical licensing exams
Namaste, thanks for the valuable information. I got my psychiatric training in Germany. How do I get the British licence and how do I prepare for the Clinical Assessment of Skills and Competencies (CASC)? Thanks for your time.
Hello mam, I hope you are doing well. I have few queries related to MRCP 1. After passing MRCP and getting admission/ residency in medical school or hospital, can I bring my wife and children to UK? 2. If yes, in how many years? 2.in how much time will my family and me get citizenship?
Thank you mam for the information. Is MRCS of UK equivalent to MS in India? And is there any fees to be paid for pursuing MRCS?Is MRCS a diploma course?
Hi, I have been and still follow you here and on Instagram and have to say you are doing good things for the profession in terms of awareness and all. For me I just want to ask a question concerning application in CT 1 for core psych training, is it compulsory to have a minimum of 1 year medical practice post GMC Registration plus a signed crest form? Thanks
Could you also talk about the visa & permanent residence. Why do people say that they are forced to leave uk and return back to home country after finishing few years as a practitioner.
Lol this is a first. I have never heard anyone say this. I want to make a proper video on it when I go through the process myself. All the information for now can be found on www.gov.uk website. In a gist, you need to be living in the country for 5 years (if on tier2 visa) then apply for ILR and then British passport if that’s what you would like to do long term. Simple and straight forward.
Why would NHS UK train you for years with all those expenses just to kick you out after training? If you stay for 5 years without gap in your visa, you can apply for ILR.
Dear Reethu. Whoever gave this information has been right. There was a phase in 2005 and 2006 when many doctors could not get jobs because the Home Office changed its rules. Those days it used to be called HSMP visa and they had to go back. It should not happen again. Because after finishing 5 years you would get PR. So your best bet is to be in training. Worst come Worse even if the Home Office rules changes, Deaneries are independent of it and once you are in training , the training cannot be discontinued. There is a risk in a contractual non training job. For example if one got a 3 yrs job contract and after that it is not extended, you can change the job, do the rest of 2 years and complete 5 years and get PR. Best Wishes to you.
You missed to mention frcem emergency medicine which I m doing it I'm from Bvp Sangli. Many have settled in Uk after clearing emergency medicine from royal College.
Yes, to the second question. Hence, I would suggest taking IELTS UKVI in the first place itself. So, you save money and have less stress of giving IELTS again. Though if you choose to give academic and it has a 2 year expiry. So, if you have to then give UKVI ILETS for Tier 2 visa you need very low score as your IELTS academic hasn’t expired. If that makes sense
Could you do a video on frcr for radiologists. If Indian radiology trainees clears frcr what are the options in uk and other countries and level of post.and how is radiology department in uk..
@@drmonishamishra : Thank you for your response. Was the job in Psych or another field? I'm a final year Post-grad resident in Psych from India, pursuing the MRCPSYCHs. Wondering..if i would need to work in a Non-training job in another field before getting into ST4.
Simplest way would be to do PLAB-----> get your GMC registration------> work and get into the system in UK----> while there do your MRCS and apply for surgical training
Hello) Hello Doctors) I am a medical student in Russia. Unfortunately my university is not a fully English medium university. So I am going to take transfer to another university and will complete my further studies from there. I have doubt that if I take transfer from one university to another.. will I remain eligable for PLAB ?
I am not too sure. I don’t want to pass on the wrong information here. You could email GMC and get clarification on this. They are very prompt with their replies.
Dear Monisha is there a need of passing any exams before you get into a training program after plab.? . If so I would like to know about the pathway to psychiactry training.
Hey. You give MSRA exams and a speciality training interview. Both of those scores are important to get an offer for Psychiatry training. I will be putting up a video about it in the next few days. It will have all the information. I hope that helps!
@@drmonishamishra wow that’s incredible! Because people have this notion that non training job can be tough and with no supervision we might not be able to cope with the NHS system. It would be really nice if you could give us an insight on how you non training job experience was like and maybe other medical graduates can get some idea? Thank you so much! ☺️✌🏼

If your CV is good, you tick all the tickboxes required in a checklist, you do well in your speciality training interview and your MSRA scores are good.. why would it be difficult? They would be more than happy to have a trainee like you.
Can u tell me is it necessary to do research and electives before appearing in plab 1 & 2?? Can somebody plssss guide me plsss plss plss. I’m so worried
Hello Mam after passing PLAB 2 , as we start Working as a trainee are we getting paid ?? Is the salary quite enough to survive on our own not being depend on parents money ???
Yes, you get paid since the day you become a doctor. Salary being sufficient depends on your lifestyle so I can’t be generalising that. Personally it’s more than sufficient in my case considering I don’t have any kids and nobody is dependant on me.
Hy is it necessary to give any kind of royal clg exams ? I can't work in u.k forever' by just passing plab ? What if I pass plab and do my fy 1 nd fy 2 but I cannot pass mrcp ? Will it be a waste for me to pass plab if in future I don't pass my royal clg exams ?
Hello. That was a very pertinent question you asked. Even though clearing the exams is the best, however if one is unable to clear exam due to personal circumstance such as family committments etc. You will still get NHS jobs and contracts so the answer to that is: you will not be jobless, there will always be something if you are happy working at non consultant level. You can have some degree of progression but you will not be a consultant without the exams and without having undergone training.
If you want to do your residency AKA PG in Uk . Then the best way to go through would be PLAB. Get your GMC registration and begin working there and understanding their system. Then while there you can do the MRCS and appy for Surgical training
Dear Sanyukta. Academic degrees are academic degrees and though good on CV you cant practise if you only have an academic degree and not on the GMC register and neither does the academic degree make you a consultant.
Hello dear.. m an indian mbbs graduate with 1 year experiance.. if i do my postgraduation here in india either md/dnb family medicine..how can i start my carrier in nhs.. after my md family medicine... m i able to plab.. wil i be overqualified for Core training...
Dear Fabi. You will not be overqualified for the job at all. It actually works in your favour because you would be knowing more, knowledge wise, than a person who is straight out of medical school. For example- if you did the arterial bloods - ABG- and you have done MD medicine, you are likely to interpret it better than FY2. But that's not to mean that someone should come to know UK only after MD/MS. It all depends on your priorities and life's circumstances and you may find yourself doing better than an MD medicine person - who knows.
Hi! Informative video. Need more info reg RCS. Since you are a about-to-be-physician can you kindly rope in someone who has entered surgical residency in UK recently from India to make a similar video? Regards, Dr Aravindh Radhakrishnan,MBBS,DNB,MCh
She is just bluffing!!! I know its tempting to do Plab but trst me you will remain hand to mouth in UK throughout your life . Being Urologist i have and still suffering financially after years in UK . Simply go to America, my colleagues who even failed to do any fellowships in America are far better financially.With family towards hard working in your life you value your CV against money. So do not come to UK . Its not worth it in the long run . And go to sunny countries . Even Australia good . All the best .
Bluffing about my monthly expenses? Lol why would I bluff about my monthly expenses? Weird. Anyway, I do agree for monetary benefits USA supersedes UK. People chasing money should definitely move to USA. I have said so in all my Instagram stories for years. Cheers!!
Dude what and how much do you eat? All your salary disappears from hand to mouth. Jokes apart, yes US pays more than UK. But is that the only measure of a balanced life? I find UK to have a bit of socialist approach. Where US is capitalist. I will be honest I chose UK over USA because it was easier to get a job, lesser expenses and time for the whole process and quicker entry to a training program. Some of my friends way more smarter than me passed USMLE but failed to get a training program. It all depends what your ambition in life is and how much money is important to you. UK can provide a comfortable balanced life if you are smart enough.
Well done and best wishes for your CT. I am a psychiatrist from India, can you please make a video on MRCPsych - scopes and cost analysis (you do them well :-)).

What are the resources should I have for PLAB?
And thanks your video is very informative..
How does Frcs /Frcp fit into the uk system?
Do all consultants have to to these before CCT?
excellent video😘
Hey Doctor
Can you please tell me or make video about How to Prepare PLAB?
You can take OET before graduating medical school, right?
And thank you very well explained.
Yes your can . OET is an english exam so you can take it anytime. But understand that it is only valid for 2 years
When to write mrcp in this plab journey? At what point?
Thank you mam for the information.
Is MRCS of UK equivalent to MS in India? And is there any fees to be paid for pursuing MRCS?Is MRCS a diploma course?
Hey can u make a video on what sources you used for plab
Yes. Will do.

You can give it during Core training or after. It’s your choice.
