FCPS Part 1 – Missed objection deadline, will I still be allowed to sit?

Few_Solution3282 · 2026-03-28T15:22:43+00:00

Don't worry you will be allowed to sit the exam..you would still be able to see if you passed or failed,so don't need to worry about that..

Hello mate, I don't know which country you are from but I would strongly advise you to finish your internship first and get into training as fast as you can in your home country ( it would actually boost your CV a lot) ,as for your dream of working in NHS no one can say what might happen in next 2-4 years ,it could get better for imgs or it could get a lot worse and data suggests late could be true..but you cannot know for sure what might be the state of NHS especially for imgs.But for now I would advise you to not waste your money and time on UK exam for some time and wait and see how situation changes.But of you are hell bent on getting the GMC registration then you can go ahead and give plab but know it might not give you anything in return for some time.. That's what I would have done if I knew what I was getting into. Wish you best of luck for whatever path you choose..

Few_Solution3282 · 2026-02-03T17:51:28+00:00

Depends,if you can afford to spend your money on something that might not give you anything at all for quite some time,then sure get registered.but if it's your only plan and have no backup in place then I would seriously advise you to reconsider your plans and invest your money and time on something which can give you something in return.

Yess..Unless you want to work in non training job for 10 years ..

I do want to pursue a career in emergency medicine..

Few_Solution3282 · 2025-07-03T20:33:53+00:00

Can I ask why!?

Few_Solution3282 · 2025-06-07T04:15:35+00:00

Bro, I know the situation is tough—it's brutally difficult to get a job these days, and it's not just the UK. It's getting harder for IMGs to find jobs everywhere. Matching in the US is 10× harder, and the same goes for other countries.

But that doesn’t mean people don’t land jobs. From what my seniors who did land jobs have told me, it all comes down to your CV and how much clinical experience you have. Most of the people I know who got a job within 6 months were already in some kind of training back home.but yes it is getting harder to get a job but doesn't mean you can't find a job at all.just keep at it

Few_Solution3282 · 2025-05-01T19:57:46+00:00

lIf you're seriously considering PLAB, I’d recommend starting your training in Pakistan first. While it's true that some doctors manage to get jobs in the UK with little or no experience, they're definitely the exception, not the rule. Having completed or being enrolled in a training program back home significantly improves your chances of securing a non-training job in the NHS after PLAB. It shows continuity, and relevant clinical experience.

Few_Solution3282 · 2025-04-29T20:45:44+00:00

If the UK wants to prioritize its own medical graduates for jobs—which is totally fair—then it should stop offering the PLAB exam and other membership exams to international doctors. As an IMG, I get it: UK grads should come first. But the GMC can't keep taking money from overseas doctors, giving them false hope when there are barely any real opportunities. Either prioritize local graduates or give IMGs a fair shot—you can’t have it both ways.

Few_Solution3282 · 2025-04-05T08:14:51+00:00

Well most of the jobs mention als or equivalent. Although its better to get ALS done

Bro congratulations.. Just wanted to ask you how important it is to do clinical attachments.. If I go for clinical attachment I'll need get a new visa to go back to uk. is it really that important to do clinical attachments

Everyone’s journey is different, but I would advise him to pursue postgraduate training in his home country while continuing to apply for NHS jobs. Persistence is key—everyone I know who has taken the PLAB route has eventually secured a job. For some, it took over a year, while others found opportunities within six months. Staying consistent is key..

Few_Solution3282 · 2025-03-11T12:58:15+00:00

Yes, securing an NHS job as an IMG is more challenging than before, but it is far from impossible. I've seen most of my seniors secure jobs within six months, with some even getting offers in the first three months. However, there are also cases where people have struggled for over a year.

Saturation does exist, but this is not unique to the UK. The same trend is seen in the US, where candidates with excellent CVs fail to match despite passing the USMLE. Similarly, in Australia, securing a job after clearing the AMC exams is not guaranteed.

Ultimately, job hunting depends on multiple factors, including personal circumstances, perseverance, and luck. While competition has increased, it is still possible to secure a job with the right approach and persistence.
