A Top Destination
MBBS is popular as an MD (Doctor of Medicine) degree that is offered as a 3 to 4- year course by a majority of universities. Although it is offered as an undergraduate degree in Canada international students need to have a 3 to 4 years bachelor (undergraduate) degree to get admission to an MD program. Universities in Canada offer admission based on a bachelor's degree and not on 10+2.
