SLMC recognized Medical Degree

Medical universities should fulfill certain basic criteria to be recognized by the overseasMedical Councils. These criteria include theduration of the program, the curriculum, staff and facilities in the university, teaching hospitals, and the location of the university.Our partner Medical Universities surpasses all those criteria with flying colors.

No need to pay 50% advance or show bank deposits (Like in China, Russia and Bangladesh)

Students who apply for other countries like China, Russia and Bangladesh are compelled to pay upto 50% of the fees up front. This is due to the fact that many students who enroll in such programmes return to Sri Lanka since they simply cannot tolerate with foreign language teaching, culture, hostels, and other education facilities. Many agents conveniently forget to mention the foreign language requirement in order to properly communicate with patients during the clinical studies of the Medical degree. PATHE Study Medicine invites parents to attend a free career counseling session to find out more information about Medical education and careers.

Why Foreign Medical Graduates fail ERPM?

The ERPM pass rates will give a proper assessment about the quality of education and suitability of such foreign graduates to Sri Lankan medical system. It’s sad to see Medical graduates from countries such as China, Bangladesh, Russia where considerable component of medical education is done in another language have difficulties in facing the ERPM examination. According to many examiners, one of the main weaknesses of such Medical graduates is the lack of keenness and interest towards Medicine. A good understanding of Medical education concepts with a passion towards Medical profession is a must to any doctor.
