If you represent a medical school or university that:

  • is on our list of institutions we do not accept qualifications from
  • is on our list of institutions whose qualifications we assess on a case-by-case basis
  • has not previously had a PMQ it awards assessed against our current criteria

and you believe your qualification satisfies all our current criteria, you can ask us to review it.

To do this complete our medical school qualification review form and send it to us along with the required supporting evidence.

If you have any questions, please contact us at GMCRegInvTeam@gmc-uk.org.
