That's for people who have done 2 years pre-med or bachelors, its like the 4 year postgrad courses in the UK, which is the norm in North America. You can be a doctor in 3 years at McMaster university in Canada (runs through the summer).
Its a postgraduate course...

It's possible if your parents are bloody rich. Have you seen the fees at SGU?
Or, if you are really rich, and moral-less, you could go to a third-world country and pay some corrupt official to register you there.

Dr. C.Rook at your service.

They already gain a degree!

Its postgraduate.
You can over here in reality it takes 7 years as that course is for people who already have a undergraduate degree and are aiming to do another.

So 3yrs undergraduate Bsc + 4yrs Postgraduate entry medicine = 7yrs

"Students wishing to achieve the medical degree may enter the program during the Premedical Sciences as part of the 7-, 6- or 5-year program, or enter directly into the four-year program beginning with the first year of Medical Sciences, which is when most students from North America begin."

How the **** is this even possible?

That's my back up..

I got four med schools in mind and two international universities..

And I don't think that it requires an undergrad. I know someone who is at SGU straight after A levels and he will have his MD in 2013....he started in 2008.......The don't get an undergrad degree only some sort of BS PCGCE or something.

Yes, you can gain a medical degree from SGU, the question is, what are you going to do with it? :wink:

They can't just place their graduates in the UK. To work in the UK they will be PLABing - which is not easy, not cheap and most certainly not quick. More fool you for believing the sales pitch.
