The questions every parent asks before sending a child abroad.

A foreign MBBS degree is valid in India when four conditions are met: the university is listed in the World Directory of Medical Schools (WDOMS), it is NMC approved, the course meets the NMC 2021 minimums (54 months of academic study plus a 12-month internship), and the graduate passes the FMGE (now NExT) screening exam after returning to India. We check every university we recommend against all four and share the official documentation of its NMC status before you commit.

You receive a line-by-line total cost breakdown before you pay anything. The typical components are tuition (the largest), hostel or accommodation, Indian mess or food, mandatory medical insurance, the annual visa extension, local transport, textbooks and FMGE coaching, which is free at several partner universities. The financial planning session covers the full six-year budget.

Every destination we recommend is vetted for student safety. Local coordinators are on the ground, hostels have CCTV, and Indian wardens are present where available. Students are introduced to verified Indian student communities on arrival. Safety is the first criterion in destination selection, before FMGE rates or fees.

The FMGE (Foreign Medical Graduates Examination) is the licensing exam students must pass to practise in India. Pass rates vary widely by country and university. We steer students toward institutions with strong reported FMGE results and connect them with coaching during their studies. The strongest partner universities on this site report rates of 60 to 100%; the figures describe past cohorts, not any individual outcome.

Students have multiple attempts at the FMGE. We connect students with coaching institutes from the first year of the course, not only when they return, because early preparation is behind the high pass rates the strongest partner universities report.

Direct transfer of foreign medical credits to Indian universities is generally not possible. Students return and sit the NExT or FMGE to obtain Indian registration. All options are explained clearly during counselling.

The NEET result, the 10+2 marksheet (50% or above in physics, chemistry and biology), a valid passport, a birth certificate, a medical fitness certificate, HIV and COVID-19 reports, photographs and a six-month bank statement. We guide you through every document step by step; the full checklist is on the admissions and visas page.

Yes. Under the NMC 2021 guidelines, Indian students must hold a valid NEET score to pursue MBBS abroad. There is no minimum score threshold for most destinations, but NEET qualification is required.

We charge a transparent service fee for counselling, admissions and visa processing. We do not take hidden commissions from universities that would compromise our recommendations. Service fees are non-refundable once application processing has begun, as set out in the terms.

We recommend only universities with stable NMC and WHO recognition histories. In the unlikely event of a recognition issue, we help students with emergency transfers and legal recourse.

Global Minds (MYKZ Global Minds India Pvt Ltd) guides students and families through admission to universities abroad, with a focus on medical degrees: choosing the university, applying, scholarships, visas and preparing to leave. It is part of the Adnan Feroz Group.

Yes. Every medical university on this site admits on merit and published fees, with no donation or capitation fee. We help you compare them on fees, recognition and reported FMGE outcomes.

Yes. Counselling for students and parents is free and commits you to nothing.

No. University admission decisions are made by the universities, and visa approvals are at the discretion of foreign governments. We commit to preparing every application to the highest standard and to telling you plainly where you stand.
