USMLE AND ITS BENEFITS

USMLE  AND ITS BENEFITS
If you are a medical student and looking for a way out, I will guide you through your options. the best way for a doctor who passed the exam recently is to give USMLE step1 & 2 here  is why

Benefits:
1.you can apply for a residency seat in HAMAD medical corporation which is in QATAR.(requirements is step1 &2)

2.if you have studied for Step 2 CK. Then you can apply for the license exam in Saudi Arab.
  If u get a good mark you can apply FOR A RESIDENCY IN KING FAHAD MEDICAL COLLEGE.
*you will get paid in these residencies. Don’t worry

3.you can give any license exams of the middle east like Qatar,Bahrain,UAE,Kuwait ,oman
As all of them requires you to pass their license exam which follows the exact pattern of USMLE step 2 ck.
*this will allow you to work as a GP in their country provided that you have 2yrs experience post internship. only EXCEPTION is Saudi Arab. you don’t need experience to give their license exam.

4.passing the two usmle steps will facilitate to get your USA visa ,and you can get a job ther and finish your step 3(i.e usmle step 2 CS) .then  apply for residency.

5.if  you pass all the STEPS in USMLE and still don’t get a seat in residency in USA .then you can easily apply for practicing licenses in the middle east and you can get that without any exam.(mainly I know about UAE.. hoping it wil be same for other countries if they follows the exam exemption protocol).  

When to give USMLE
1.       You can  give the Usmle step 1& 2 during your internship.
2.       You can also give step 2 CK first as it is more clinical oriented and then give step 1.
3.       You will remember everything you studied as you passed recently thus making the exam prep easier.
4.       You can also give step 1 in your 5th year.
Study materials:
1)MASTER THE BOARDS
2)USMLE WORLD
#kaplan series… mainly solve as many questions as you can to get oriented with the system.

AMC (Australian Medical Council)

AMC (Australian Medical Council)

Its needless to say you require this health license to work in Australia.As Australia is one of the best places to live in this earth,no wonders there  a lot of demand to work there.so in short I am writing about the Australian medical council exam.
Most foreign trained doctors have medical qualifications not recognised in Australia. Thus they must gain eligibility by passing the AMC MCQ and Clinical examinations. There after they are required to work as an intern in any Australian accredited hospital,completing a year of supervised training approved by the relevant State Medical Board. Afterwards,they can obtain their general registration as a medical practitioner in Australia.
Doing the AMC exam is essential for any OTD wanting to find work in Australia as a Doctor.

It has two parts
The 1sr part is MCQ type questions .
And the 2nd part is clinical exam.
After passing both you need to work under a superviser in any hospital in Australia.
You will need to pass IELTS exam and score minimum7.0 after part 1
Your MBBS degree have to be verified from your medical college.
p.s- it’s a lengthy process and takes around 2 to 3yrs to pass. and the jobs are mostly outside city.

Details about the exam are written below.its a rip off from the amc website 
The examination comprises of 2 parts, being a multiple-choice questionnaire and a clinical examination.

The Multiple Choice Questionnaire (MCQ) is a test of the principles and practice of medicine in the fields of internal medicine, paediatrics, psychiatry, surgery and obstetrics and gynaecology. A number of questions on each discipline also have a focus on general practice.

The clinical examinations evaluate clinical competence in terms of medical knowledge, clinical skills and professional attitudes for the safe and effective clinical practice of medicine in the Australian community.

The exams consist of two linked stages:
Stage 1 is an assessment of consulting skills in medicine and surgery, obstetrics and gynaecology and paediatrics.
Stage 2 is a multi-station assessment of clinical skills.
The examinations are designed as a comprehensive test of medical knowledge, clinical competency and performance. Both MCQ and clinical assessments are multidisciplinary and integrated.
Candidates for the AMC exams must demonstrate the ability to exercise discrimination, judgment, reasoning and communication.
There are two sections in the AMC exams.
1.  The computer administered multiple-choice examination consisting of multiple-choice questions of (MCQ).  The AMC MCQ tests candidates in general practice, internal medicine, paediatrics, psychiatry, surgery, obstetrics and gynaecology.  The AMC MCQ is conducted over one day, and is in two parts, each of three hours duration.  Each part consists of 125 questions.
2. The AMC Clinical examination covers medicine, surgery, obstetrics, gynaecology, paediatrics, and psychiatry.  The format of the AMC clinical exam can consists of a multistation assessment of candidates clinical skills and takes half a day.

Deep into that darkness peering

I know you wont admit that you  want these, and you are not shallow minded as me. Anyway we all have different goals and pursue different carriers some becomes doctor and some engineer. these two are still the most popular carrier choices people make.  Now the doctors they are the practical bunch some may think money comes easy when you become a doctor. thats a total lie don’t fall for that. doctors know money does not come easy.so often we search for a place where one can lead a good life and enjoy all those things that one holds dear. So for an MBBS doctor its quite hard to earn a decent living with amount of work we do(specially Bangladeshi dr).so we look for options, that might ease our life. Look no further try to get a license in Abudhabi/Dubai the dream destination of all.
