When students and parents think about pursuing MBBS abroad, they’re often flooded with doubts, fears, and conflicting information.
Is it safe? Is it valid in India? What if I don’t clear FMGE/NExT? How much does it really cost?
At MyMBBSGuide, we believe in clearing confusion with facts. This blog addresses the most frequently asked questions (FAQs) about studying MBBS abroad in 2025—so you can make an informed, confident decision.
Yes, absolutely—but only if you follow the rules set by the National Medical Commission (NMC):
➤ Choose an NMC-approved medical university
➤ The course must be 54 months + 1-year internship in the same country
➤ You must clear the NExT exam after returning to India to get your license
Any degree from a university that doesn’t follow these guidelines won’t be accepted by NMC.
To apply for MBBS abroad in 2025, you must:
➤ Be 17 years or older by 31st December of the admission year
➤ Score at least 50% marks in Physics, Chemistry, and Biology (40% for reserved categories)
➤ Be NEET qualified (current or previous two years)
➤ Hold a valid passport
Costs vary depending on the country and university. Here’s a general idea:
➤ Russia / Kyrgyzstan / Uzbekistan: ₹18–35 lakhs (all inclusive)
➤ Georgia / Philippines: ₹30–45 lakhs
➤ Caribbean Islands: ₹40–60 lakhs (with US clinical rotations)
👉 Always consider tuition fees, hostel, food, travel, insurance, and living expenses.
The FMGE (Foreign Medical Graduate Exam) is being replaced by NExT (National Exit Test) from 2025.
➤ NExT will be mandatory for all MBBS graduates—Indian or foreign
➤ It will act as both a licensing exam and PG entrance test
➤ The exam will be more clinical and concept-based
So whether you study in India or abroad, you must clear NExT to practice medicine.
Yes, after you:
➤ Complete MBBS + internship at an NMC-compliant university abroad
➤ Clear the NExT exam
➤ Register with the State Medical Council
You will then have the same rights as an Indian MBBS graduate.
