No, a BSc in Cardiology alone won't qualify you to become a consultant cardiologist. A Bachelor of Science (BSc) in Cardiology equips you for entry-level technician roles in cardiology, not as a doctor. To become a cardiologist, you need a Doctor of Medicine (MD) degree in Cardiology, which requires an MBBS (Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery) degree first. MBBS is the foundational medical qualification. Even with an MD in Cardiology, becoming a consultant cardiologist requires several years of residency training and experience specializing in cardiology. If you want to become a cardiologist, you need to pursue an MBBS degree followed by an MD in Cardiology.With a BSc in Cardiology, you could consider an MSc in Cardiology, but this would still qualify you for advanced technician roles, not as a practicing cardiologist. I hope it helps!
