I remember there being biology and chemistry (possible English as mentioned above) entrance exams. All information can usually be found on their university websites:

As a medical student, studying in both Plovdiv and Sofia offers unique experiences. Sofia, with its prestigious Medical University, has excellent facilities, a diverse international community, and a lively city life, though it’s a bit pricier. On the other hand, Plovdiv’s Medical University provides a supportive, close-knit atmosphere with a focus on quality teaching. The cost of living in Plovdiv is much lower, and the city’s rich history and relaxed vibe make it a charming place to study. While Sofia has more networking opportunities and modern amenities, Plovdiv offers a more affordable and community-oriented experience. It really depends on whether you prefer the bustling capital or the scenic, laid-back charm of Plovdiv. if you havent yet applied let me know I can help
