* What a bunch of Hippocrates !!

  Okay, I do not post regularly on this forum but having read the stuff posted here over the last few days I thought I'd add my two cents. First of all I think this forum is full of a bunch of Hippocrates. I read the post by iv asking for money to cancel his interviews.....I think his post was one of the funniest ones I read and was meant to be a bit of a joke. But the way people on this forum attacked him calling him a "disgrace to the profession" and even going on to call his mother a donkey ... I think you people who are attacking him with words like that are a bigger disgrace to the profession for using words like that. If you cannot hold yourself from reacting with such harsh words just because you are in a little bit of stress you guys don't deserve to be doctors..... I mean you will be in bigger stress when you have someones life in your hands.......IV might hurt someone because of his poor ethics (and thats considering he was being serious) You guys on the other hand are going to be killing your patients just by being yourselves.

Who made all you guys the moral judge of character to tell someone to stop being a doctor. You guys are okay with getting pirated version of Kaplan Notes and NBME's, but someone even makes a little joke about asking for money to cancel his interviews you all freaking burst an aneurysm.

No one on this freaking forum can answer someone else's question without asking for their credentials.....how is it any of yours business ?? Its surprising to see how you all think its somehow your god given right to come and practice in the US.. Since most of you guys are from India let me tell you one thing about India fellows....the Indian Medical Council does not even recognize any medical school outside of India .... so good luck for trying to practice in India if you go to a med school outside of India.

So before you guys go around telling other people what to do and what not to do ... might want to look at your self and get your own moral bearing straight.

  your general knowledge is very poor. MCI conducts a test for foreign graduates and if they pass it, they get the license. An internship is required in India after the test to get permanent license.

  luckydonkey its not my general knowledge that is poor its yours......In order for a person to write that so called exam that you talk about You need to get approval from MCI BEFORE you go to the foreign school....the key word if BEFORE.....the US does not ask you get persion from hem BEFORE hand to go to a foreign medical school ... they just tell you write the exam.

Here is the excerpt from the MCI website:

It is brought to the notice of Indian (citizens) students who are desirous of joining an Undergraduate Medical Course (equivalent to MBBS in India) in any Foreign Medical Institution on or after the 15th March,2002, that all such intending candidates shall have to approach the Medical Council of India, Aiwan-E-Galib Marg, Kotla Road, New Delhi-110002 for issue of Eligibility Certificate for getting admission to an Undergraduate Medical Course in any Foreign Medical Institution as per the provisions of "Eligibility Requirement for taking admission in an undergraduate medical course in a Foreign Medical Institution Regulations,2002" which has been notified in Part III Section 4 of the Gazette of India Extra-ordinary issue dated the 18th February,2002.

  so luckey donkey, if i do my residency here in internal medicine and then go to india, which test do i have to pass to practice as an internist there..because the test ur talking about is for M.B.B.S recognition..is there separate test for all sub specialities too..may be ur investigative skills are more required to answer such qs rather than find out iv's identity..
