Becoming a doctor is a dream for many a young men and women, looking for a profession that is among the most respected, financially rewarding and attractive career choice in India. However the stark reality is that medical institutions in our country do not have the capacity to admit even 1/3rd of aspirants. The lucky ones, who manage to secure admissions often, complete their studies carrying huge financial debt.  All this at a time  when there  is a huge shortage of doctors in India, which according to the Parliamentary Standing Committee report on the Medical Council of India clearly states that perhaps there is only one doctor available for 2000 patients. http://www.ima-india.org/ima/left-side-bar.php?scid=492, an alarming figure when the WHO mandated ratio is 1:1000. The mammoth shortfall of doctors is not limited to India. If one takes the WHO figure; the shortfall of doctors throughout the world is huge. Countries like United States, UK, and Australia also face a huge shortage which would reach alarming proportion by 2020.

Given the tougher entrance requirements and subsequent cost factor involved, a growing number of medical aspirants are exploring options of studying Medicine abroad. Though USA, UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand etc remain the first choice of students and parent seeking world class medical studies abroad , one should be realistic that it can be extremely challenging in term of time, fees and intellectual effort though the reward for the same is a flourishing medical career.

The UK Clinical Aptitude Test (UKCAT) or the Biomedical Admissions Test (BMAT), Graduate Australian Medical School Admission Test (GAMSAT) or MCAT (North American Medical College Admission Test and so on.
