But those looking to gain medical degrees from the country, will now face a roadblock--of language. They might have to <a href="https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/world/china/china-restricts-mbbs-course-in-english-to-45-varsities/articleshow/71485629.cms">learn Mandarin </a>to enroll in the country’s MBBS programmes. The government of China is allowing only 45 of its universities to teach MBBS in English. There are over 200 universities in the country offering medical courses. “It has been clearly mentioned by the Chinese MOE that teaching MBBS course under a bilingual (English/Chinese) model is strictly forbidden. The MOE has also informed that the list of universities will be regularly reviewed and updated in due course,” PTI <a href="https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/industry/services/education/china-restricts-teaching-of-mbbs-in-english-to-45-colleges-amid-big-surge-of-students-from-india/articleshow/71482435.cms">reported</a> citing Indian Embassy. China opened its doors to foreign students in 2003, and now there are as many as 500,000 of them. As many as 23,000 Indian students enrolled in Chinese universities — and more than 21,000 of them opt for medicine. To avoid confusion among aspiring doctors, Indian Embassy removed the Chinese universities that do not offer courses in English from its website. However, the students who are presently enrolled in any university other than those listed by the government are learning Chinese language to get through the course. In China, medicine education costs nearly ₹300,000 to ₹500,000 for government-authorized universities. In India, the tuition costs can range anywhere between ₹1 million to ₹3 million.

Indian medical students will now have to learn Mandarin to study in China

The country’s government has announced that international students — including Indians — will no longer have to learn Chinese languages for pursuing medicine in their country. According to media reports, the Chinese Ministry of Education (MoE) rolled out an official list of universities in China that are qualified to teach an MBBS degree programme in English. The ministry has <a href="https://www.thehindu.com/news/cities/chennai/only-45-chinese-varsities-can-admit-indian-students/article27073965.ece">recognized 45 universities</a> that can enroll foreign students — including Indians — that will provide education in English. However, there is a ban on bilingual curriculum — Chinese and English. The announcements float just ahead of the next admission season that will see many Indians applying for courses abroad. Since 2016, over 7,000 Indians have <a href="https://www.hindustantimes.com/education/only-45-medical-varsities-listed-to-teach-mbbs-in-english-in-china-beijing/story-pYavo9INMulCQrvKafThuL.html">moved to China</a> to study medicine. In fact, over 21,000 Indian students were enrolled in MBBS courses across the country last year. Ever since China opened its doors to foreign students in 2003, this was the highest enrollment from India. One driver for Indian students is the relatively cheaper tuition. For government-authorized universities, medicine education costs nearly ₹300,000 to ₹500,000. In India, the tuition costs can range from ₹1 million to ₹3 million. You can view the list of universities on the official<a href="http://en.moe.gov.cn/"> website </a>of Ministry of Education, China.

You no longer need to know Chinese languages if you want to study medicine in China

<ul><li>The Union Cabinet gave a nod to National Medical Commission Bill (NMC). </li><li>Students will be admitted based on score in the MBBS final examination, which will now be known as National Exit Test (NEXT). </li><li>NEXT will also be considered as a screening exam for foreign medical aspirants. </li><li>The common entrance test will also be applicable to AIIMS and INIs.</li></ul>In a good news to medical aspirants in India, the Union Cabinet gave a nod to National Medical Commission Bill (NMC). With the National Medical Commission (NMC) in place, students will be admitted based on score in the common final year <a href="https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/politics-and-nation/national-medical-commission-bill-gets-cabinet-nod-to-be-introduced-in-current-session-of-parliament/articleshow/70264838.cms">MBBS exam</a>, which will now be known as National Exit Test (NEXT). This means that the medical aspirants will no longer have to go through a separate examination to secure a licence to practice medicine, or to enroll in postgraduate programmes. In fact, NEXT will also be considered as a screening exam for foreign medical aspirants. In a bid to have uniformity across institutions, the bill also seeks to rope in All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) and Institute of National Importance (INIs) into the given criteria. “At present, we have NEET and entrance exams for AIIMS. Now, we will also have an exit exam that will be for everyone for getting a licence to practice medicine in the country," Mint <a href="https://www.livemint.com/politics/policy/cabinet-approves-bill-to-replace-mci-with-national-medical-commission-1563360408508.html">reported</a> citing Union minister <keyword id="119642" type="PERSON" weightage="20" keywordseo="Prakash-Javadekar">Prakash Javadekar</keyword>. The NMC, which will substitute the Medical Council of India(MCI), will be set up to take over the responsibilities of conducting common entrances for MBBS, streamlining the course and fees. Under this, the government will introduce fee relaxation for students enrolling in private institutions. “The Medical Assessment and Rating Board will grant permission for new medical colleges, starting PG courses and increasing seats based on the standards set by the UG and PG boards,” the Cabinet noted. The NMC will constitute three autonomous bodies — Under-Graduate Medical Education Board, Post-Graduate Medical Education Board, and Ethics and Medical Registration Board — which will focus on ensuring global standards of education. Every year, 80,000 students take admission in MBBS courses across the country. While 150,000 take the entrance examination to enroll in 50,000 seats for PG courses. The government recently <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/health-ministry-proposes-to-rule-out-neet-examination-for-md-and-ms/articleshow/70225109.cms">announced</a> a 26% increase in the number of seats for MBBS aspirants in the last two years — reserving nearly 5,000 seats for economically weaker sections.

Now, MBBS doctors need not take extra exams for licences, PG admissions

It wants to drop NEET (National Eligibility cum Entrance Examination) for admission into MD (Doctor of Medicine) and MS (Master of Science) courses. If the draft National Medical Commission (NMC) bill goes through, students can be admitted based on score in the MBBS final examination and National Exit Test (NEXT), PTI<a href="https://www.thehindu.com/education/health-ministry-bill-proposes-to-axe-neet-pg/article28430886.ece"> reported</a>. They will also not be required to go through a separate examination to secure a licence to practice medicine, according to the proposed draft. The draft excludes All Indian Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) from the given criteria. The candidates wanting to enroll in PG courses in AIIMS will still have to go through the mandatory entrance exam. In addition to this, the NEET Super Speciality exam will also be mandatory to study Master of Surgery (Mch). The draft NMC Bill was tabled in the Parliament in 2017. It focussed at introducing a ‘bridge course’ that will enable medical practitioners of alternative medicine to pursue allopathy. However, it faced criticism from medical professionals and health associations in India. The bill was later revised with several amendments including aggressive punishments for unauthorised practice of medicine — a year long imprisonment or a fine of up to ₹500,000. However, to address the shortage of medical professionals, the government has <a href="https://indianexpress.com/article/education/4800-mbbs-seats-reserved-for-economically-weaker-students-5826733/">allocated 26% more seats</a> for MBBS aspirants in the last two years — reserving nearly 5,000 seats for economically weaker sections. Overall, nearly 80,000 students take admission in MBBS courses every year in 480 institutes across the country. Of this, 150,000 take the entrance examination to enroll in PG courses.
