Hello aspirant,

You can definitely practice medicine abroad after your mbbs in India. There are many pathways for that. Here are fews ways -:

USMLE-
  • United state medical licensing examination is a 3 step medical examination conducted/ sponsered by federation of state medical board and national board of medical examiners in United States of America to earn a license to practice medicine in USA or get in to the residency program.
  • You should also keep in mind that there is only single attempt for step 1 and step 2. Therefore a bit harder than other exam due to single attempt restriction.
  • The total cost involve in this exam is approx 20000$-25000 $.

PLAB
  • It is a registration examination which enable to get GMC registration to work as a doctor in UK .
  • It is a two step examination PLAB1 and PLAB2
  • Less difficult, and more attempts as compared to USMLE
  • Total cost involve in PLAB is approx 6000$- 8000$.

Apart from these two , different countries have different licensing examination such as AMC exam to practice medicine in Australia and NZREX in Newzealand.

Hope this was informative for you.

Good luck
