NOTES

·  PLAB Courses are the short courses: Doctors have the option to take the long course paying for the extra fees and accommodation (adjust return travel accordingly).

·  PLAB Courses do not include any mock tests: These are recommended but increase both the course fees and the course duration (accommodation costs).
