    guys , even though you guys booked for plab you need to study the portions in content map and not from questions . The website mentions they will change the exam content to mla content map in early 2024 , the name of the exam will remain plab for some time they will change it later . so don't study past questions study the contenta

    Brilliant video. I'm Dr Olivia- A Consultant from an IMG Background , currently working in the NHS in the UK. Your videos are spectacular. I wanted to start videos like these 10 years ago when I first came to the UK as there was very little information/guidance for IMGs- However, I found that I did not have the time/energy to consistently do something like this on my own. Are you a married couple? You both do such an amazing job. Anyway, now that I've 'finished' my journey towards becoming a Consultant in the UK- I've finally 😅,decided to start a youtube Channel to give advice/ideas as well . I've being doing this intermittently over the years to persons who have approached me and thought that I might as well take it to youtube. If you ever want another Consultant's perspective re working as an IMG in the UK- I'd be happy to do something with you guys. Congrats again and well done.

When I was applying for the MSRA 2024, there was a part I was asked if I would have gotten 24months experience before starting training which will be on August 2024, pls does this means that I would be starting training on ST3 level?
    Please help me with this information sir

    Hello! quick question;
    The last 2024 UKFP guideline state that the deadline of qualification from med school was 3rd October however they want a PLAB1 booking confirmation by 31st August.
    How can one get the booking confirmation before qualifying as you cannot open a GMC online account without qualifying?

      @@RoadToUK How can you not comment as to how their content map is made while in the same vein promoting your own resource material as being compliant with UKMLA..That seems contradictory. By your submission it simply means you are sure "Road to UK" resource material is more suited to the PLAB exama but you're not coming confidently to refute the usefulness of the traditional plabable material we use..Its more like piloting your audience to one direction and also issuing a disclaimer.
      If you're resource material prioritizes this UKMLA content map then I'm sure you can extrapolate if plab is still a reliable resource material knowing fully well you know the Plab resource material well..Once you compare both and you have a knowledge of the content map then you can say for sure one of them or both of them are good to go.

    As-salamualikum brother
    I request you to make a video about MRCPI, as it seems to be easier to pass compared to MRCP(UK). How can a doctor progress his career in the UK afther passing MRCPI ? Is it same as MRCP(uk) or there advantage with one over the other in terms of career progression in UK ? And those who have completed MRCP(UK), can they work in Ireland without PRESS/ MRCPI ?
    It is a hot discussion topics now a days, but there is no clear information. Thank you.

    Thank you, Dr. Ibrahim. What I'd like to know is if there's a possibility of the GMC opening up more exam centers around the world (I'm in China) since the PLAB/UKMLA will now be a computerized exam. I wrote them last week about this question, but no feedback from them still. Thanks a lot!

      Hard to say! We know there have been requests in the past to make more centers even within some countries, but we've not heard of it actually happening. Hopefully GMC does reply - and please let us know if they do!

    Dr Ibrahim I wanted to ask if u could make a video about the pattern of UKMLA exam
    I read it somewhere that the exam will have 2 parts with 100 mcqs in each part and it is going to be based on MCQs with 5 options etc
    How much time is this exam going to be then??
    What does 2 parts in this exam mean!? Does it mean that 1 part will be based on basics and the other part on clinicals or something....kindly i would highly appreciate if u could make a detailed video about the pattern of the exam

    Hi ! I'm studying in Tajikistan but I'm from Pakistan. Here in Tajikistan it's MD (General Medicine = 6 years) but they also give MBBS 5 years degree to Pakistani and Indian students. If i have to take UKMLA exam, will it matter if i study 5 years MBBS instead of 6 years MD? Because the Degree for local students is 6 years MD. Will GMC and other countries medical councils accept my 5 years MBBS degree. Please reply because i'm very confused !
