Thread: test and admission

Good morning, I am a third year student at San Raffaele University in Milan and would be happy to answer your questions. Just to clarify, are you looking for an international program (in English)? The process could be different in terms of admissions and the relevance of my experience. San Raffaele offers the admissions test in April in cities across the world - including a number of main cities in the States. Please check their website for more details on logistics. The exam is in English and tests your logical reasoning along with main science principles. Passing this test permits entrance to the course. Then depending on your previous education, you may be prepared to enter the second year of the program. In my case, I had already completed the first year courses (e.g. biochemistry, biostats, etc) during my undergraduate degree. I took a second exam that is created by the Nation Board of Medical Examiners to assess my knowledge of these topics, and the score was compared with the class average to ensure I was at the level of the class entering the second year of the course.
