You’ll have a combination of written assessments including essays, short answer questions and single best answers. Your professional values, communication and clinical skills will be tested through practical assessment methods.

Your professional development is also tracked through assessments within the e-Portfolio, including reflective writing, and feedback from colleagues and staff. Regular meetings with your tutors will ensure that you’re given support to keep on track and reach your full potential.

At the end of the course you will be eligible to apply for a UK Foundation Programme job in the United Kingdom. This will provide you with the required postgraduate experience to gain full registration with the General Medical Council.

After obtaining full registration, you will have the education and experience to apply for any one of over 100 possible medical specialties.

There are national programmes available for medical graduates to obtain specialist postgraduate training and experience in leadership, management, entrepreneurialism and research.

It is possible to study for an additional degree: an intercalated degree may condense a three year course into one year, which makes it a challenging but rewarding choice.
