Ans: Hello Southa,

To begin with, thank you for contacting us. I am glad to hear that your son is currently pursuing the 2nd year of his MBBS degree and thereafter wishes to pursue his post-graduation (PG) in Australia or Dubai. As an answer to your query, I would like to tell you that the following procedures and considerations need to be taken into account in order for your son to pursue his postgraduate studies. Your son will first need to shortlist universities that provide the PG programs he’s interested in pursuing. I would recommend that he looks into the particular prerequisites as well as eligibility requirements for postgraduate courses in these preferred countries. This entails academic credentials, examinations viz., the PLAB or AMC exams in Australia, hands-on (job) experience, as well as appearing for language competency tests viz., OET or the IELTS. Fill out and submit applications, and be sure to include all the necessary documentation. Your son will also need to consider other aspects. He will need to take into account the prerequisites for health insurance for overseas students in the country he decides to study in. I would also suggest that your son investigates the lodging options and arranges for the same well in advance. In addition, considering you belong to the middle-class category, it’s essential that your son plans his finances. He should investigate the grants, scholarships, and other forms of monetary assistance offered to overseas students studying in Australia or Dubai. Moreover, to reduce the costs of living, your son should engage in part-time jobs available for students in these nations. He should comprehend the visa prerequisites associated with studying in these two countries and finish the visa application procedure. Remember that acquiring assistance from experts or academic advisors with expertise in foreign admissions can prove beneficial. They will be in a better position to offer guidance throughout the application procedure, provide assistance with all the required paperwork, as well as provide information on the courses that would best resonate with your son's future goals and monetary circumstances. Finally, to enhance your son’s application to pursue postgraduate courses abroad, I would recommend that you support him in achieving academic excellence and acquiring pertinent work experience.

Ans: Hello Munna,

First and foremost, thank you for getting in touch with us. I am happy to hear that you have completed your MBBS and now wish to pursue your postgraduate (PG) studies in Australia. Concerning your question regarding the requirements and exams that you would need to clear in order to pursue your postgraduate medical studies, I would suggest that you follow these steps:

First and foremost, you would need to make sure that your MBBS degree is acknowledged in Australia. The Australian Medical Council (AMC) will need to evaluate your credentials, in order to assess if your degree adheres to the prerequisites for Australian practice. Next, English being the medium of instruction at universities in Australia, you will be required to prove your fluency in the English language through appearing for English proficiency tests viz., the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) or the International English Language Testing System (IELTS). Remember that following the acknowledgement of your qualifications, a registration application to the Australian Medical Board will need to be submitted by you. To practice medicine in Australia, this is required. I would like to tell you that based on the field of specialization you choose to follow, you may be required to take specialized exams. In order to become a general practitioner (GP), you may be required to pass both, the multiple-choice question (MCQ) exam, as well as the clinical test, administered by the Australian Medical Council (AMC). On the other hand, you might have to clear the pertinent specialty-specific tests for other fields of specializations, viz., internal medicine or surgery. After having been granted admission into a postgraduate program and after having fulfilled all additional prerequisites, you will be required to apply for the necessary visa, to be able to study and work in Australia. The kind of visa you’ll need will depend on your situation and the length of your course. I would recommend that you conduct a comprehensive study on the Australian universities that offer the PG program of your choice. Remember that the application procedure and deadlines may differ between universities, and so, ensure that you gather the necessary paperwork, such as academic marksheets, statement of purpose, and recommendation letters. Also, take into account the tuition costs and living expenses in Australia. Look into the various scholarships and monetary assistance offered by Australian universities to help defray these costs.

In order to acquire recent and precise information, I would suggest that you carefully go through each and every step of the procedure, as well as get in touch with the appropriate authorities or organizations. I wish you the very best for your higher studies in Australia.

Next, as part of the application procedure, your daughter will need to submit her academic marksheets, a statement of purpose (SOP), endorsement letters, and at times, scores of standardized tests. Make sure she adheres to all the prerequisites and deadlines for every program that she applies to. I would suggest that your daughter takes into account the cost of studying overseas, including costs of living, healthcare, tuition, as well as any prospective scholarships or possibilities for monetary assistance. She should look into scholarships available to overseas students. In addition, help her locate appropriate housing, be it private rentals, university accommodation, or homestays whilst taking into account variables viz., safety, closeness to the university, and the cost. Not just that, also make sure that your daughter possesses adequate medical insurance coverage that satisfies the university and host country's criteria. I would recommend that your daughter gets in touch with alumni, former and current international students, faculty members, as well as experts in her academic field. Remember that developing a robust network can offer advice, invaluable assistance, as well as chances to collaborate. I would suggest that your daughter learns about the visa prerequisites and immigration procedures for the nation she has chosen.
