Test Purpose

The PLAB test is designed to test the knowledge, skills and attitudes relating to conditions commonly seen by trainees entering the second year of the Foundation Programme (first year SHOs), the management of life-threatening situations and rarer, but important, medical problems. This means that UK-trained doctors and international medical graduates (IMGs) are expected to have the same level of knowledge and skills at this stage of their career.

Passing the PLAB test will not guarantee you the offer of a job in the United Kingdom and you will not be granted limited registration without the offer of a job. Finding a job is your responsibility and you should ensure that you are well informed about opportunities for work before embarking on the PLAB test.
