Screening Test

What is MCI Screening Test

Screening test also known as FMGE (Foreign Medical Graduates Exam) is conducted by the Medical Council of India every year for students who study MBBS in foreign countries. The Indian doctors who study MBBS in abroad need to clear the MCI Screening Test/FMGE Test once they graduates from the foreign medical colleges. Every student who graduates MBBS Abroad must have to take this screening test if the student wish to practice medicine in India.

Food and Accommodation

Most Indian students after joining MBBS in Russia prefer staying in some PG’s or rented rooms nearby the college. The rent for staying outside is much more when compared with the hostel fees and the students will have to pay separately for their food and other requirements. This practice is highly disapproved by most of the consultants as they may affect the students health and their financial conditions. The food available outside is costly and we are not sure that they are hygienic. Thus staying outside hostel may not be a great idea for Indian students.

Language Barrier

As the mother tongue and the official language is Russian, it will be difficult for Indian students to cope up with the locals there. Most of the colleges teach courses only in Russian. The students must be careful before selecting the medical colleges. Only medical colleges which specifies bilingual or English will take classes in English. If not the student must have to learn the language which is not required in other English speaking countries

Climatic Conditions

Russia is generally is an cold country. Climatic conditions are not similar to India but are more like China. The country has longer winter seasons. One could expect frequent snowfalls from June till January.

Exposure to Modern Culture

As Russia is one of the European country the exposure to night life and to late nights pubs may affect the students health and studies. Also practicing harmful drugs and alcohol may happen to students through night life habits which could divert them from their studies. For these reasons every consultant will advise the students and parents to stay in college hostel approved by the medical colleges.

MCI Screening Test

Indian students who are graduated from medical colleges outside India will have to take screening test conducted by the Medical Council of India. Only students who pass this screening test will be allowed to practice medicine in India. Each year the MCI screening test will be conducted twice. Most of the consultants are providing special coaching for students who are about to complete their education. Students are advised to take these coaching so that they could take the FMGE exams without fear.

MCI Eligibility Certificate

Indian students before applying for studying MBBS in Russia or in any foreign country should apply for MCI eligibility certificate from the government of India. Also, Indian students are recommended to prefer medical colleges that are listed among the MCI list. Getting these Eligibility certificate are much easier when students apply through consultants.
