Estimated timeline
| Stage | Typical time | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Check eligibility and the cycle dates | A few days | Read the current cycle page first. In the 2025 to 2026 cycle the organiser listed twelve physician sittings, and you can register for one exam at a time. |
| Collect documents | One to three weeks | Passport, transcripts, degree or dean letter. Final-year students need the dean letter to be arranged early. |
| Register and pay | About an hour | Seats are limited and the organiser says registration closes when seats fill, even before the posted closing date. |
| Prepare | Four to twelve weeks | Use the plans in this guide. Start earlier if you work full time. |
| Sit the exam | One day | Computer-based. The organiser says usually 120 questions in 3 hours. |
| Results | Within ten working days | The organiser says an electronic statement of score and ranking follows within ten working days. Its schedule shows result dates a few days after each sitting. |
| Residency applications | Follows your result | Applications go to each residency authority separately, each with its own dates. |
Notes
- The organiser says seats are limited and registration fees are not refunded.
- Candidate sources report that every attempt is recorded and sent to health authorities, so sit when you are ready.
