Two Ways for Pursuing MBBS Ahead

Now, It's time to discuss the two options you have ahead to pursue MBBS after your graduation. Basically, you can either begin from the initial stage or you can reduce your time & cost involved, and accomplish your MBBS relatively faster.

  • In the first approach, even after completing your graduation, you have to take admission in the same manner as a class 12 pass out would take. In such a case, you will be required to pay the same fees that one has to pay after class 12 and your MBBS course duration will be between 5 to 6 years, varying as per the country where you take admission. It is around 6 years in India.

This implies that even after completing your graduation, i.e. the B.Sc. Nursing degree, you have to give more years, money, and time to complete your MBBS degree, as the case prevalent in India. So, hereby your graduation degree will have no real value.

  • The second one is a discerning and economical approach. Here's the shorter way that can help you to accomplish your MBBS faster. What if you can complete your MBBS in just four years after your B.Sc. It is clearly intelligible that why would anyone want to waste two years of his life by doing MBBS which is 6 years long if he can instead do MBBS in 4 years?

You can opt for the second approach by doing your MBBS after B.Sc Nursing in the Philippines. By this, you can save both your time & money. If you have completed graduation in India (B.Sc/ BAMS/ BHMS/ other) or a B.S. degree in a foreign country, then you can get admission to the four-year M.D. (Doctor of Medicine) program in the Philippines which is equivalent to the six-year MBBS degree in India.

A Comparision of both the approaches-

 

Longer Approach

 

Economical Approach

 

Additional years to accomplish the degree

 

Reduced years to accomplish the degree

Additional money spent on fees

Reduced money spent on fees

Additional living & other expenses

 

Reduced living expenses & Visa charges

 

No benefit of graduation degree, no reduction in the duration of MBBS

 

A graduation degree will reduce your years of study for MBBS

 

There will be a comprehensive gain for the student by adopting the second approach. Other than saving your time.

Also, Let's understand this with a small calculation:

Longer Approach - 3 years | Graduation | + 6 years | MBBS | = 9 years

Economical Approach - 3 years | Graduation | + 4 years | MBBS | = 7 years

Hence, via the second approach, you will be able to complete your MBBS faster. It saves your two years and the costs involved. It gives you the advantage of reduced fees, accommodation, & food, and Visa charges. You can opt for the second approach via doing your MBBS from the Philippines.

Instead of the usual 5 - 5.5 years program, you can get admission to the 4 years MD program in the Philippines because as you have already completed your graduation you become qualified to take admission in the M.D. course.

MBBS after B.Sc. Nursing from the Philippines

Firstly, you are required to crack the NEET and NMAT exams for getting admission into the M.D. course with a duration of four years. In India, qualifying for the NEET exam is compulsory for admission in undergraduate medical courses. The NEET result is valid for 3 years for MBBS abroad. Next, you are required to qualify for the NMAT exam. NMAT happens in the Philippines in March and October. For this, you need to fly to the Philippines and appear for this exam. You can apply for the M.D. program in the Philippines, only after qualifying NEET (in India) and NMAT (in the Philippines).

This is a quicker and better way to study MBBS after BSc Nursing. This four-year course is analogous to the six-year course in India.

The medical education system in the Philippines is among the finest Asian education systems.  Their education system provides high-grade medical education. It is one of the leading places for Indian students to accomplish their higher education at affordable costs in English. Almost every famous university in the Philippines follows the education system of the USA. It is an appropriate decision for a rewarding career, to pursue MBBS in the Philippines. The leading universities providing a medical degree in the Philippines are approved by:

World Health Organization (WHO)

Medical Council of India (MCI)

Educational Commission for Foreign Medical Graduates (ECFMG)

World Federation for Medical Education (WFME)

Foundation of Advancement of International Medical Education & Research (FAIMER)
