Before entering phase 2 of MBBS and in line with GMC recommendations, students on the MBBS programme must achieve the required NHS standard of IELTS to progress to Year 3 of the course due to the importance of language competency for clinical placements. Before Year 3 of the MBBS, students must achieve the equivalent of an IELTS score of at least 7.0 in each testing area (speaking, listening, reading and writing), and an overall score of 7.5. The scores must be from the same ‘academic version’ of the test and the certificate must include the original stamp and test report form.
