Dear Reshu,
A degree is a qualification that an individual acquires to pursue their professional goals in life. In India there is a lack of good doctors and the doctor to patient ratio is also below the required. So, definitely MBBS is quite sought after.
But as technology is evolving everyday so is the need of good engineers. I suggest you ask yourself what kind of profession will give you satisfaction. If you are satisfied and happy, you will definitely be successful in any profession you opt for. So, don't base your decision solely on the demand of a degree.
If you need further assistance in your decision feel free to write back.
All the best!

Dear Esha,
The standard of Medical education in countries like USA, UK, Australia, Canada and New Zealand is better than in India. In terms of cost, it is very expensive and not affordable for many.
Besides, these countries a lot of Indian students are going to countries like Russia, Philippines, China, etc. The main driving factor is the limitation of MBBS seats in India and hence very few students get admission in free seats or government quota in India.
So, if you compare between these countries and India, my answer is that choose a good college in either India or any of these countries as the quality of education matters a lot in the long run. In India many colleges lack proper infrastructure, facilities and quality faculty. So do many colleges in these foreign countries.
So, India should be preferred if you get a good college at affordable cost or you can consider going abroad to a reputed institution in any of these countries. Do your research well about the Institute as many agents promote institutions where they get more profit.

Dear Sanjay,
For pursuing MBBS you need to go through entrance exams and apply to various colleges as students do after 10 + 2. As you must have done when you enrolled for BHMS. There is no direct or lateral entry after BHMS.
Time is of essence so if you are really keen to pursue MBBS even at this stage, you can consider selecting a recognized university in Philippines. You will be eligible to apply directly for Doctor of Medicine (MD) in Philippines which is equivalent to MBBS in India. The course duration is 4 years. After completion of MD, you will have to appear for MCI (Medical Council of India) screening test and clear it to get your license.
To enroll for MD course in Philippines you need to clear an exam in Philippines i.e. NMAT. But since you are already a doctor, you should be able to clear NMAT with ease.
There are many other countries but mostly the duration of course is 5 to 6 years plus internship. So considering your existing situation, I suggest you this option after which you can start practicing as an MBBS doctor soon and go for PG in India or abroad.
I also suggest that you can prepare for USMLE while in Philippines and apply for USMLE exams simultaneously.
To know more details, kindly contact us or write back.
All the best!

Hi Srinivas,
For a PG Medical course and to practice in Australia, you must obtain the AMC (Australian Medical Council) certificate. To obtain the AMC Certificate you must first clear required AMC pathways that is AMC MCQ and AMC Clinical. You must pass the AMC MCQ before you could sit for AMC Clinical. As an international student you must also provide a valid IELTS score.
After you have cleared AMC Clinical, your qualifications and credentials will be evaluated and approved by ECIS. Only after ECIS validates your qualification the AMC will provide you the necessary certificate. It is also important that you communicate with an Australian Medical School for registration and clinical jobs before starting the entire procedure.
Hope this helps.
