for three weeks icluding weekends

(with 2 off days in between)

2)  Short course  -

    for 10days (includes weekends)

Timings –

                        Long Course (3 weeks) details : -

We give a short lecture about a topic on each day morning  (eg :- CNS or Paediatrics) and then solve all the past questions about that topic in the afternoon. 

                      Short Course (10 days) details : -

We teach 2 topics per day. There will be only discussions of the questions but no lectures.

We suggest every one take the 3 weeks class as you learn every thing for the exam and chances of passing is very high.

We suggest the short classes only to those who cannot attend the long classes.

                            PLAB 1 Mock test Details : -

After the coaching classes we conduct mock tests very similar to the GMC exam where candidates will learn about the time management as well as techniques of answering the questions.

We conduct mock tests on 6 separate days and the candidates can chose any days they want to do the mock tests. We suggest every one to take at least 4 mock tests.

Mock test will be held in the morning for 3 hours from 9 am till 12 noon.

There will be discussions of the questions from  1.30 pm till 7pm.
