You will get a Bachelor of Medicine degree (sometimes called BM, MBChB, MBBS, all mean the same thing). Medicine is an undergraduate degree, so whether or not you study it as a school leaver, or as a graduate, you still get the same qualification. There is no avoiding doing an undergraduate medical degree if you want to be a doctor, as this is what qualifies you to practise medicine.

No, you will get the exact same qualification that you would if you started at 18.

Doing graduate-entry medicine and doing medicine without having completed a degree previously will give you the exact same qualification
