Hi,

Well getting a medical education in USA requires you to complete a undergraduate degree first and then do MD and to get admission in any medical college there for MD, a student is required to give MCAT exam. Since you are a high school graduate, you need to do a undergraduate course before entering into medical school in USA. In uk you can directly go for medical school because there you will get mbbs degree similar to india.

Hello student ,

Yes , it is important to give MCAT exam for getting admissions for MBBS in Harvard University and eligibility criteria for giving this exam is as follows .

If you belongs from  US and Canada must have a under graduate degree to be eligible for the exam.

Further  Indian student have to take permission from authorities of american medical council .

You are eligible if you have done your 10+2 with PCB from a recognized school .

Before all these things I will suggest you that after MCAT exam only 1 % chances for Indian student is there to admitted because they need more brilliant student only who had scored more than 95% further they may also for donation .

Hope this will help you !

No according to me you are not eligible for it. it is quite a difficult task for you to move in the field of medicine after you have chosen Geology.I recommend that since you have higher degree in Geology then you should take your path in this field only.

Or else you will be considered as General Category and so you have to secure a minimum aggregate of 50% in Physics, Chemistry and Biology.

In the US, Medicine is usually studied after Pre Medical Course. In Indian standards it is Bachelor's degree. You have to complete your Pre Medical Course and then study Medicine if you want to study Medicine in the US. That's the reason MCAT is usually taken up after your Graduation or Pre Medical Course. But NEET is taken after 12th in India. But you cannot study Medicine in the US with your 12th qualification.
