and norms set by the Ministry of Health & Family Welfare and the Government of

The regulatory authority for MBBS in Bangladesh is the Bangladesh Medical & Dental
Council (BM&DC). All medical colleges are required to be affiliated with BM&DC, and

The eligibility criteria for pursuing MBBS in Bangladesh are more stringent
compared to other international MBBS programs. Candidates aspiring to enroll in
private medical colleges in Bangladesh must satisfy the following eligibility
requirements:
1. The applicant should have successfully completed the 10th grade, not earlier than 2021,
with a minimum score of 70% or an equivalent grade.
2. The applicant must have completed the 12th grade, not earlier than 2023, with a
minimum of 60% in Physics, Chemistry, and Biology.
3. The applicant must have qualified for the NEET examination.
4. The age of the applicant should be above 17 years.
Many international students also contemplate pursuing a Medical PG in the USA
(USMLE) after completing their MBBS in Bangladesh. This inclination is often driven by
the challenges in securing PG seats in India.
With the implementation of the National Exit Test (NEXT), a significant number of Indian
students are drawn towards preparing for the United States Medical Licensing
Examination (USMLE) from the first year of their MBBS. This is because the USMLE
preparation aligns with the new NMC Competency-based curriculum. The healthcare
system in the USA is widely regarded as one of the best globally, owing to factors such
as attractive remuneration, excellent infrastructure, merit-based evaluation, and ample
opportunities for specialization. Many countries aspire to emulate the US healthcare
assessment system for their medical graduates. The USMLE examination comprises three
parts, allowing candidates to take Step 1 after the second year, Step 2 CK during
internship, and Step 3 during residency (Medical PG).
