 With tough entrance examinations and stiff competition, securing admission to medical schools in India has become a tall task, forcing many Indian students to take up medicine studies abroad to realize their “Doctor dream” Though countries like USA, UK, Canada, Australia etc remain the first choice of students and parent seeking world class medical education, one should be realistic that it can be extremely challenging in term of time, fees and work load. Moreover to get admission in these institutions students have to undertake stringent entrance tests.

As a beacon of hope, Several top notch medical institutions in Europe and South east Asia are opening its door to Indian students, where medicine education is not only economical, the entrance requirements are also less cumbersome, notwithstanding the excellent education system and infrastructures that are truly international.  Countries such as Philippines, China, Malaysia and many European countries like Bulgaria, Ukraine, Russia, Hungary, Poland Armenia, Denmark, Latvia, and Lithuania Denmark are prominent among them.

The Philippines, in the recent times, have become one of the most favored destinations for Indian medicine students, owing to high education standards of its institutions. The education system of Philippines follows the US system with English as the medium of instruction. For Indian students seeking to study medicine in Philippines, the duration of study is almost the same as in India and that too at an affordable cost. The tropical climate and hence the disease conditions and occurrences are similar to India, which enhance the efficiency of the medicine students on par or even better than an Indian medicine graduate. There are  few good medical schools with own hospitals for teaching and internships which are managed by Christian missionaries listed by WHO and Education Council for Foreign Medical Graduates (ECFMG) as approved medical schools which allow students to appear for the USMLE.

Notable among missionary run medical institutions in Philippines is St. Paul University Philippines, founded by the Sisters of St. Paul of Chartres more than a century ago. Situated in the beautiful city of Tuguegarao, St. Paul University flourishes as a formidable institution in the formation of Medical doctors geared towards the provision of optimum and affordable health care programs where knowledge and experience are perfectly combined to continuously infuse medical students with relevant learning opportunities.

St Paul University Philippines holds autonomous status as a mark of credibility for strictly adhering to government rules and regulations and also for achieving excellent academic output.

7 Simple tips to be better prepared for your Foreign Medical Graduate Examination (FMGE)

Leave a reply

FMGE

Representative Image-   image courtesy Google

Back home after an enriching medicine studies phase abroad?  So far excellent but the most crucial step lies ahead, which is clearing the foreign medical Graduate exam which is a licensure exam conducted by Medical Council of India through the National Board of Examinations (NBE) which is mandatory for citizens who have a primary medical qualification of any medical institute outside the country and want a provisional or permanent registration with MCI or any state medical council. The FMGE consists of a single paper, comprising 300 multiple choices questions, delivered in two parts, of 150 minutes each, to be taken in a single day.  Scoring a minimum of 50 % marks is required to clear this exam.

In spite of having secured top notch Medical education abroad, one is required to prepare for the exam with the same intensity shown during ones medical school days as there is no room for complacency at this stage. Let us discuss certain simple tips that would aid in your FMGE exam preparation.

  • Master the syllabus

Knowing the syllabus in depth is half the job done, as only a well targeted intensive study is going to yield desired result. Give equal importance to all the sections and avoid selective study at all cost Make sure you cover the entire syllabus. Do not pay heed to shortcut study methods like concentrating only on certain areas from where questions are expected, this is a type of gamble you cannot afford to take at this juncture.

  • Make your own notes

Though ample numbers of books are available in the market there cannot be an alternative to making own notes as these notes are your quick reference guide.  When exam preparation reaches its peak, one will not have the luxury of time to read entire portions. Moreover these small notes prepared after intensive reading sessions comes handy during revisions.

  • Work on your weak areas

Concentrating only on areas where you are strong and ignoring portions which are tuff and uninteresting and leaving it for the last minute is a fatal folly that many students commit.  This can affect ones strike rate and can make the difference between success and failure.  Identify areas where you feel your will not be able to score well under present situation.  Devote ample time studying this area, as leaving things to chances is not going to work in your favor. Remember that every singly mark counts in the end.

  • Be consistent in your revision

Revising the portions in a regular manner is important in ensuring that one is able to retrieve the information at the time of exam. The more you revise, better the chance of information getting imprinted in your memory. Since a huge volume of information is processed it is always desirable to go back and read the main points once, twice or thrice as time permits. Make sure your study pattern is in such a way that you have enough twice of completing at least two to three rounds of revision.

  • Attempt maximum number of MCQS

However hard you have studied, attempting an exam is a different ball game altogether which requires precision and speed to score well.  Attempt maximum number of MCQ questions from the portions which will give you a clear idea of the nature of questions one is likely to face and gives you a fair idea where you are scoring high and areas where you are losing out. This can help you not only improve your speed but can also help remedial measures to strengthen your weak areas .The more the number of practicing MCQS,  greater would be the chance of scoring high .

  • Attempt mock tests

Mock tests are great ways to check where you stand in terms of preparation. For those who have enrolled at a coaching centre mock test are a regular feature one should utilize to the optimum level.  There are many websites offering free mock tests where you can register with your email id and attempt a test with set time period.  It not only gives you a feel of attempting the exam but also tests your speed of attempting and gives you real time feedback as to how to improve your test taking under time constraints.

  • Refrain from using too many study resources

It is a wrong notion that larger the number of study material referred, greater the chance of scoring high, this is a fallacy and on the contrary will leave you confused and disoriented.  Make sure you use books by authoritative authors Do not make it a habit to change your books depending on feedback by friends or info that trickle in every now and then.  Remember, there is no book that guarantees total success it is how you utilize your limited study resources to your advantage that counts.

When it comes to success there can never be a short cut to hard work.  A well channelized effort when followed in a consistent manner is sure to yield result  So  stay positive, give your best shot  Success is not far behind.

Europe has been attracting students from all over the world; the main reasons being the plethora of cost effective study programs offered by prestigious institutions of the region.  If these two were crucial factors that made students take a beeline for institutions of this region, with the European Union directive that eases work, residence rules for non EU students the number of students choosing Europe as a high value study destination is going to increase exponentially

  •  Brings uniformity in work and residence rules

The European Union in its efforts towards making its member countries International student friendly  has come in with this  uniform regulation pertaining to part-time jobs and  stay back for Non EU students and researchers. If one thought these developments would take years to materialize think twice.  A visa directive brought out this month mandates all EU member states within 2 years to allow non-EU students and researchers to work for a minimum of 15 hours a week while studying and to allow stay back period of nine months post-graduation to look for work or start their own business this is music to the ears of thousands of students who are optimistic about carving out a future in the conducive environment of Europe.

  • Allows family members to accompany and also work

The good news doesn’t end here; students pursuing research programs in EU countries would be allowed to bring in their family members who also would have the right to work.  This to a large extends takes the financial pressure off a student and would help family members earn to support the scholar during the course of his/her research stint.

  • Unhindered mobility across Europe

The directive also would do away with the tiresome process of obtaining visa to move from one EU country to another.
