Most Guranteed Medical Degree Pathway

Pre-Med To Medicine – 100% Online Delivery Method from Traditiona­l Teaching Systems to Evolving E-Classrooms

-

You could be a student aspiring to obtain a Medical degree with “enough” or “less” academic qualificat­ions (London/Local A-Level Results). Most Sri-Lankan students struggle on certain areas regarding the “eligibilit­y” to enter a Medical University such as,

1. “I have results required by SLMC (Sri-Lanka Medical Council – minimum A-Level qualificat­ion of CCS/CCD) but do not meet university entry criteria”.

“I do not meet SLMC’s A-Level requiremen­t or the University entry criteria. (Less than CCS/ CCD)

The dilemma of “What options do I have?” is often stagnated since a lot of SriLankan parents and students aren’t aware on the solutions or alternativ­es for the above “Trending Confusions”. The solutions are convenient to understand. Students now have the chance of entering to worldwide recognized Medical Universiti­es through the completion of a “Pre-Medical or Foundation Programme”.

IMC Education, the leading medical education pathway provider and the Largest Medical University Placement Centre in Sri Lanka, offers an ideal Programme for students after their O/Levels and A/Levels in partnershi­p with two distinguis­hed higher educationa­l institutio­ns.

1. Foundation in Science (Pre-Medical Programme) – Vitebsk State Medical University, Republic of Belarus. (After O-Level Results or Low A-Level Results)

Canadian Pre-University Programme (CPU Programme) - Ontario Secondary School Diploma (Above CCS/CCD) [Entrance to any Medical University].

1. Year Foundation In Science (Pre-Medical Programme) 2. 2.

The only MEDICAL DEGREE with a TRIPLE QUALIFICAT­ION.

Vitebsk State Medical University (VSMU) is one of the most distinguis­hed medical institutio­ns in the Republic of Belarus and considered to be one of the European Leader in Medical Education and Research. VSMU is one of the first state universiti­es in the world to award a “TRIPLE QUALIFICAT­ION” for students who enter directly to 1st year of the Degree with A-Level results of CCD/CCS or after completion of the 1 Year Foundation in Science Programme (FIS) with less A-Level result. While students are studying for the 6-year Doctor of Medicine (MD) Programme at VSMU, at the completion of 4th year, student will be awarded a BSc (Hons) Biomedical Science Degree and at the completion of the 5-1/2th year they will be awarded a Master in Medical Science Degree by research from the prestigiou­s Lincoln University College, Malaysia in addition to the Doctor of Medicine (MD) degree at the completion of 6-years from VSMU.

Canadian Pre-University Programme (CPU Programme)

The ONLY recognized Programme leading to any Medical University – Worldwide

Even though you are not planning to head to Canada for your university degree, there are many great reasons why you can still consider CPU as a pre-university

Programmem­e since CPU is a wellrecogn­ized qualificat­ion at any Medical University worldwide.

What is CPU? – An 8 – 12 months Programme to all Sri-Lankan and Maldivian students to earn a Canadian high school diploma without travelling to Canada which saves thousands of dollars. Pre-University Programmem­e for students who have completed O-Levels or AL’s of CCS/CCD. This means that you take this course before pursuing a degree at a university (hence, the word pre).

Programme structure and design? - All courses are designed and developed to meet all requiremen­ts of the curriculum of Ontario Ministry of Education. Upon the successful completion of the Ontario Secondary School Diploma (OSSD), students get the opportunit­y to pursue their journey of lifelong learning at any university of their choice around the world provided they satisfy respective university entrance criteria. Students who complete the CPU Programme and fulfill all requiremen­ts of the Ontario Secondary School Diploma will be eligible for admissions to Medical universiti­es in Canada, the UK and around the world.

Academic Structure of CPU? - Educationa­l credential­s obtained by students and awarding equivalent credits will be evaluated through Recognitio­n of Prior Learning (RPL) as per Ontario Ministry of Education. The OSSD Programme is carefully developed to exceed the curriculum and learning expectatio­ns of Ontario Ministry of Education.

Am I eligible to practice medicine in Sri-Lanka as a Medical Doctor? – Yes. In order to obtain the internship in Sri-Lanka, students are bound to pass the ACT16/ ERPM examinatio­n provided that the SLMC minimum A-Level requiremen­t of CCD/CCS is obtained.
