For MBBS graduates, I would like to know what is the medical school required to fill in
a)total no. of weeks of academic instruction completed
b)total no. of weeks of clinical instruction completed
My med school officials are a bit confused over this.
Is academic intstruction = 4.5 years ( converted into weeks)
Is clinical instruction = 1 year internship or
from 2nd year onwards including internship or
from 2nd year onwards excluding internship?
I would really appreciateif somebody can advise?

I am not sure how they got the 286 weeks.
Scroll down to the table from the MCI link which mentions 142 weeks and gives the split distribution.
Now 142 weeks is counted from 3rd till 9th semester.
bcoz hypothetically if we assume 4 weeks per month ( i.e 24 weeks per semester) even then 24x9 = 216 weeks only
586 comes if we multiply 5.5 with 52
i.e whole 5.5 years ( including internship) with 52 ( no. of weeks in an year)

You have fill in 2 forms and give it to ur Program Co-ordinator who sends it to the PA state board.
You have to give the 3rd form ( medical school education verification form ) to ur med schools dean's or registrar's office who fills in and attaches the reqd documents and sends it directly to the state board.
