Philippines

Hi Rakesh,
You can consider doing PG from Philippines, China, Russia, Germany etc. but MCI does not recognise these qualifications. Students who study MBBS from abroad undergo a screening test by MCI to get their license and registration. There is no such exam for doctors who do PG from these countries.
If you are able to pursue your PG from USA, UK, Canada, NZ, Australia, then your PG will be recognized in India.
I suggest you prepare for PLAB and other licensure exams. On clearing PLAB you can get an opportunity to work as a resident doctor in UK. There are excellent prospects.
Kindly reach us to know the details about how to prepare for these exams.
All the best!

Dear Koushik,
Either of countries is fine. Important is to choose a good college wisely in either country. That is what will make a difference in what you will learn. If you want to practice in India, then you will have to appear for MCI screening test to get your license. You will not be given any special preference even if you do it from Central America.
In terms of cost Philippines is preferable. Central America is being promoted in India as a gateway to become a practioner in USA. But what you need to know is that you need to score well in USMLE for that. USMLE can be given even if you do it from Philippines or any other country for that matter. Seats are very limited. It is very competitive.
Some colleges in Central America offer clinical rotations in USA. But even after this you for you to take up PG in USA, scoring exceptionally well in USMLE is the only way. So, choose a good college in any country and don't be blinded by rosy stories woven by agents.
To know more you can write back.
All the best.
