You need to complete your MBBS degree. USMLE's are the first step to becoming a doctor in the US. Not only must you pass these tests, but you should be scoring high if you want to compete with US grads and other Foreign Medical Graduates.

Hi,
To pursue your PG and practice further, you as an international student must take country specific licensing exam. Know the differences, USMLE is meant for US and Canada whereas PLAB is mainly for European nations. Similarly countries like Australia, New Zealand etc. also have their own exams.

Hi,
You must take either USMLE 1 or MCAT, if you want to pursue PG in medical studies. Most of the programs are not open for international applicants. Another alternative is a specialized Masters such as MS or MA in psychology, for which you can take GRE or GMAT to be considered for admissions. In short, you cannot apply without clearing any entrance.

Hi Divyam, apart from clearing the USMLE you must obtain the state medical license. All decisions regarding acceptance of USMLE results and/or licensure eligibility are made by the individual state medical boards of the United States. Go through USMLE website for details.
