I have done bhms from India, Can I givr MCAT and if scored good, will I be eligible for MD admission (considering bhms as my college graduation)

monag2673 23rd Aug, 2024

Yes, you can give the MCAT exam even if you have a Bachelor of Homeopathic Medicine and Surgery (BHMS) degree. The MCAT is a standardized test used for admission to medical schools in the United States and Canada.

However, while a good MCAT score can be a significant factor in your application, it is not the only requirement. Medical schools also consider other factors such as your undergraduate GPA, letters of recommendation, research experience, and personal statement.

To increase your chances of admission, it is important to:

  • Achieve a high MCAT score: Aim for a competitive MCAT score.
  • Maintain a strong undergraduate GPA: A high GPA demonstrates academic excellence.
  • Gain relevant experience: Seek opportunities for research experience, clinical volunteering, or shadowing healthcare professionals.
  • Write a compelling personal statement: Highlight your motivation for pursuing medicine and your unique qualities.
  • Obtain strong letters of recommendation: Ask professors and mentors to write letters that highlight your strengths and potential.

It's also advisable to research the specific requirements of the medical schools you are interested in, as they may have additional criteria or preferences. While a BHMS degree is not a traditional pre-med requirement, a strong academic record and relevant experience can help you stand out in the competitive admissions process.

can I get admission in USA medical school after giving MCAT

bhumika tiwari 26th Jun, 2022

Hi there.

Yes, admissions committees for medical schools consider your MCAT score, as well as your academic record and supporting materials, to assess your foundation for a successful medical career.

While your MCAT score is a crucial application component, it does not determine your prospects of acceptance. This is why, if you apply wisely, you may get into medical school with a low MCAT score.
