Ma'am our medical University doesn't mention any grade, marks, they simply mentioned that u had graduated, then what to do?

[carlosreyesf]

My internship would normally be 12 months long, but my government decided to shorten it to 10-11 months due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Have you heard if the GMC considers such internships as acceptable for full registration?
Otherwise I guess I will take the UKFP route and do internship again.

[summaiyaiqbal]

Can you please guide on how specialized/academic foundation programs are beneficial? Do they help in getting into speciality training?

[premibala]

Hi Ibreez! Thank you for the informations very helpful. Iam planning to opt for ukfp, is it okay to have a gap year (not work )during the preparation time? does GMC raise a question about it ?

Hello Dr Ibreez! Your video is extremely helpful. I am an IMG from Pakistan and I graduated in Feb 2023. One of the requirements for Eligibility Application is the Provisional registration of GMC. The eligibility application window is 6/7/23-29/7/23. Do I need to do my plabs before this date?

[СайдамирСадыков]

Hello, Dr. Ibreez. Thank you for your channel. Does UK accept applicants for foundation programme and core training from Russian? And Is it possible to enter into UKFP without a gap year, if in my medical school graduation usually is July?

[anandb]

Hi!! After graduating from med school, we have to give our ielts, plab 1 and plab 2, then apply for ukfp and do provisional gmc registration right??

[sajidmahmud_]

After completing MBBS and 1year internship here in Bangladesh, can I get into CT1 directly (NHS)? Or the foundation years there are compulsory?

[sumayasurovi]

I have few questions apu. And it will be very kind of you if you clear out my confusion please.
1) is ukfp the only option to do fy1? Or after completing plab 1 n plab 2 we can search for fy1? Or do we only have to go through the process which you described here ?
2) is it possible to complete plab 1 n plab 2 and then go back to home country and do one year internship?
3) I graduated last year from Ukraine and took admission in PG in here and preparing for my Plab 1 alongside. I didn’t do internship yet.so what process map will be better for me you think?

[pragatipragati]

[shalomsudayarachel]

Is it necessary to do our internship in uk ... Orelse can we do other countries as well which is having acceptable criteria by gmc .. why becoz I am asking this IS INTERNSHIP IN UK being a rule for IMG s to get eligible ?? Or doing in other countries also can be eligible??

[nadiaashraf]

What do you mean by educational performance score ?!
I am a med student from bd
Does this mean our prof results!?

[ajaymnair]

Hi, I have currently graduated from Russia in 2022and looking forward to ukfp …have booked my oet next month but I guess next slot for plab seats are only 2024 only… would it be problem if I have a 2yr gap ….like I could only join ukfp as possible as in 2025?.
Also would it be hard to get into ukfp considering I have not done any prior internship?

[m.y]

Asalamualeykum, Very informative as usual. Just wanted to ask wether doing FY2 locuming roles as first UK job is good idea and if I can use that to fill up my CREST form and meet the elligibility for specialty training?

Thank you very much

[MsKamakshi]

Hi Ibreez! Thank you for another informative video. I love and appreciate your efforts 💟.
I completed my internship in India and unfortunately, due to the pandemic, the plab exams are being postponed. Can we take up the ukfp after we completed the internship in the home country. If yes, then do we enter the uk via the tier 2 visa?. Thanks in advance

[sanamasroor]

How is this programme beter to enter UK than direct PLAB pathway after doing internship in home country.
