FAQs

How do I apply for a Doctor of Medicine (MD) program in Australia?

Graduate MD programs require a Bachelor degree, a strong GPA, GAMSAT score, and an interview. Some programs accept international equivalents. Compare medical pathways.

Can I become a doctor later in life?

Yes. Many people enter medicine as mature-age students. Graduate-entry MD programs are well suited for career changers who meet entry requirements.

What’s the difference between an MBBS and an MD?

Both are medical degrees. MBBS (Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery) is the traditional Australian pathway, while MD (Doctor of Medicine) is a postgraduate equivalent. Both qualify you to practise medicine.

Are online medical degrees available?

While clinical placements must be completed in person, some elements of the coursework can be studied online. See blended medical learning options.

Is there a shortage of doctors in Australia?

Yes, particularly in regional and rural areas. The government offers incentives and priority placements for doctors willing to work in these regions. Learn more at health.gov.au.
