It depends on the specific course or pathway you choose after MBBS. Requirements for MBBS graduates in the UK typically include:

- Recognized MBBS degree (must be accepted by the UK’s General Medical Council)
- Clinical experience: Usually at least 12 months of internship
- English proficiency: IELTS or equivalent, typically an overall 7.0 (requirement varies by course)
- Additional entrance exams/interviews: Some programs require MRCP, GAMSAT, or other tests
- For research-focused or graduate entry programs: A 2:1 honours degree or equivalent may be needed

Requirements and eligibility are subject to change and vary by university and course.
