First, you need to pass class 12th with 85 percent marks, then give IELTS exam and score 8.5 marks in it, then give MCAT exam and if you get clear make a passport, then visa of USA and most important keep Rs. 1 core for your 5 year MBBS.

Hello,
To pursue MBBS from USA, you must first complete your Bachelor's degree preferably from USA, clear the Medical College Admission Test which is MCAT and seek admission into a medical school. There is no MBBS degree as such and the process mentioned above is the typical procedure to study medicine in USA. Take your SAT and TOEFL to apply to Bachelor degree programs. You must also be academically very bright.

Hi,
Yes, you must take the SAT or ACT and the TOEFL. However, there is no MBBS in USA. You need to enroll into a Bachelors degree program and thereafter clear the MCAT which is the Medical College Admission Test before pursuing your medical studies.

Hi Vaishnavi,
To study MBBS in USA, you need to first apply for admission to premedical program in health science for which you need to score exceptional in SAT (Scholastic Assessment Test).
This pre medical program is mostly for 2 to 3 years. After this, to get admission to medical school, you need to appear for MCAT; an entrance exam for admission to medical course. This is again very challenging.
So, overall it is challenging and expensive to get into a medical school in USA.
I suggest you can also look at MBBS in European countries.

Hi Venkatesh,
You can choose any country, but more important is the university you choose.
Secondly, don't be misled by agents who promote South America as gateway to USA. Even if you are doing your clinical training in USA along with studies in South America, you will have to crack USMLE to get residency in USA. It is extremely difficult.
In Philippines, very few universities have good standards of education. First, you are admitted to pre medical program of 1.5 years after which you get admission to 4 year MD program but to be promoted to MD, you need to clear an entrance exam NMAT with minimum 40%. Most of the universities are private.

Hi,
NEET is not required abroad, it's only for Indian medical schools. But for USA and Malaysia different exams would be required. Also, in US there is no MBBS, you must complete your bachelor degree, then clear the MCAT exams to study medicine. I will advise you to visit university websites and check the admission requirements.

Dear Amit,
MBBS in the USA is a better option than pursuing it from other countries like Russia, China, Philippines, Ukraine. Package for the USA starts at 35 Lacs for the complete course including hostel and food. Also, USA has the following advantages:
-Exemption from MCI.
-2-years of Clinical Internship.
-No entrance test as MCAT doesn't have a center in India.
-Quality education.
-Best medical practice standards.
-You don't have to learn a new language for clinical rotation.
