  1. Kigezi is not "listed among the schools that graduates could sit for plab". It is one of those in the "may" or "case by case basis".
  2. I happen to know that the GMC is well aware of what has happened to Kigezi. However such schools still have graduates who may apply for registration years later. Additionally it is sometimes unclear and uncertain whether these moribund schools have been reincarnated.
  3. The information which I published - that the GMC does not recognize degrees for registration purposes - came from the GMC's own website. Therefore I would assume that it is "legitimate"!
  4. If you're asking whether the GMC is justified in taking this line, that's a different issue. I don't know their precise reasons and the source of their information, beyond what is stated on the website.
  5. Yes, the GMC in general is tardy and some of its information is out of date. They do a great disservice to both public and students in this way.
