A candidate is eligible to give the MCAT exam if he or she is interested in pursuing one of the following courses:
-
M.D.
-
D.O.
-
Podiatric (D.P.M.)
-

-
Any other healthcare or medicine related program which requires MCAT scores in order to meet admission criteria.
Students not from the US and Canada who are enrolled in an MBBS program are not required satisfy any other additional eligibility requirements. But students who are not from the US or Canada and are pursuing a program in healthcare and medicine other than MBBS or have no immediate intention in pursuing a profession in healthcare and medicine are required to obtain special permission in order to be eligible for the MCAT exam. The special permission requirements and other details can be found on the official AAMC website.
For international candidates they will requires mbbs degree for natives of usa and Canada they only requires ug degree..Hope this helps you
.If I get more information they I will replay you...
For USA natives, to do MD they need set of interdisciplinary health sciences program and also masters in cology, biomedical sciences etc and then they write MCAT to get into MD out there ...
Instead, you can try for USA licensure by completing exams, internship and do two years pharmacy residency and become clinical pharmacist, which is equally respected field as physicians in USA.. good luck.
