Manas677 a year ago Hi, To pursue Masters in Surgery from Australia you will have to first get yourself registered with Australian Medical Council (AMC) and clear its test to practise. It's the mandatory requirement to clear and then only you can go for any clinical course at a postgraduate level in

Australia. After that you need to send your SOP (statement of purpose) along with your academic certificates to the Universities. Once you receive the University acceptance letter you can apply for the Visa. An IELTS of overall 6.5 (with no band less than 6.0) will be the mandatory requirement by the Australian Visa High Commission. Entrance exam conducted by Australian Medical Council (AMC) is not very easy to clear so I would recommend you to keep options open for non- clinical courses like Public Health, Health Administration etc. 00 Report Abuse

Shiksha Counselors a year ago Hi, to enrol a student must hold a MBBS degree from a medical school approved by the executive dean; and have completed two years clinical practice after graduating with the MBBS.For admission to MD in Australia you need to first register with the Australian Medical Council (AMC). The Australian Medical Council (AMC) is the organisation responsible for assessing overseas trained doctors to enable them to obtain registration in Australia. The AMC also accredits Australian medical Schools courses leading to registrable qualifications. Postgraduate medical education is conducted by professional associations of doctors called `Royal Colleges' and not by universities. The college sponsors training in the major specialties. This training extends from 7 to 10 years. During training candidates are employed in approved posts in hospitals and after the training they are awarded a degree which permits specialized practice. An international student must first secure a training position which is not quite easy to get. Postgraduate award courses are conducted by each university. An IELTS of overall 6.5 (with no band less than 6.0) will be the mandatory requirement by the Australian Visa High Commission. The average expenses for a year are around 10-11 lacs p.a. (inclusive of both the cost of living and the tuition fees). You must meet medical registration and immigration requirements to work in Australia as an Overseas Trained Doctor (OTD).You need to apply for work permit after you get a job. If you revert with the course (specialization) details we can guide you in a better way. Good luck. 00

Bachelor of Medicine & Bachelor of Surgery (MBBS)

Previous to the year 2001, all Indian students were required to go to those medical colleges abroad which were listed by the Medical Council of India (MCI) in the Third Schedule of the Indian Medical Act, 1956. However, in the year 2001, the Indian Medical Act, 1956 was amended on 3 rd September 2001 and was re-named as the Indian Medical Act (Amendment) 2001, where Section 13 (4A) and (4B) were amended to nullify the previous restricted list of Recognized medical colleges and give permission to an Indian citizen to freely join any medical college in any part of the world, subject to the obtaining of an Eligibility Certificate prior to joining the medical college and upon the successful completion of the course appear and pass a screening examination in India to register the equivalent MBBS degree. The amendment of the relevant section of the Indian Medical Council Act can be viewed here

The Eligibility Certificate is issued by the Medical Council of India on the following basis: 1. Obtaining of 50% and more marks in Physics, Chemistry and Biology for General Candidates 2. Obtaining 40% and more marks in Physics, Chemistry and Biology for Reserved Candidates. 3. Completion of 17 years of age. 4. Submission of valid caste certificates in case of reserved candidates. Screening Test: All Indian citizens who have completed their medical graduation in any medical college in any country and who have obtained the Eligibility Certificate is required to appear and pass a Screening examination to register their degree in India. This examination is conducted by the National Board of Examination. Some of the Salient points of this examination are as follows: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. This examination is not a competitive exam and covers the syllabus of the MBBS course that the student has studied. The examination is in the nature of Multiple Choice Questions (MCQ) The examination consists of 3 parts. The student requires only 50% aggregate in the examination to pass the same. The examination is conducted twice a year ~ March and September. There are no limitations on the number of attempts. A student can give unlimited attempts to appear and pass the exam.

Doctor of Medicine (MD) & Master of Surgery (MS)

Till the year 2008, post- graduation from nowhere in the world was recognized by the Medical Council of India for the purpose of registration as an additional qualification in the register maintained by the Medical Council of India. In the year 2008, the MCI started recognizing the additional qualifications from five English speaking countries namely, USA, UK, Canada, Australia and New Zealand for registration. Besides the above, post graduate qualifications from nowhere in the world are recognized by the Medical Council of India for registration as an additional qualification. That would mean that the student who finishes his postgraduation from any other place would be unable to work in a government organization as a post graduate or go into academics. Needless to say, he can work in a private hospital or have his own private practice. However, the Russian degrees are already recognized in the European Union, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Mauritius etc. where the students can work as a post-graduate doctor after passing examination like PLAB etc.
