Hey there!

MCAT is an entrance exam accepted for various MD courses by American and Canadian universities after earning a bachelors degree. You cannot study medicine right after completing standard 12, unlinke India. Studying medicine in Russia and Ukraine is similar to that of India, except it takes 6 years to complete rather than 4 years, as is the case in India. Moreover, you get a MBBS degree in both India, Ukraine and Russia. You, however, need to qualify NEET in order to be eligible for studying medicine in Russia and Ukraine. Also, there is no entrance test taken in these countries.

Hence the highest MCAT pass percentage is in USA and Canada itself (the countries accepting MCAT).

Hope this helps. All the best!

Hey ravi!

Also as you have mentioned NMAT phillipines , then it is National medical admission test for phillipines , which is for MBBS and there is no relation between the syllabus of  MBBS entrance exam and MBA entrance exam. So , i have given you answer on the basis of NMAT which is for admission in MBA in NMIMS.

Hey Dimple!

You can give the MCAT test, whilst doing the course, however, for applying for MD programs, other than the course you are currently enrolled in, in USA you will have to produce your undergraduate degree. So, make sure to check the terms and conditions of the program you are currently enrolled in (check whether you can switch after completing your UG or do you have to stick through during the entire duration of the program; if at all you plan to change or switch).
