The Professional and Linguistic Assessments Board (PLAB) exams serve as a gateway for international medical graduates to practice medicine in the United Kingdom. Designed to assess the knowledge and skills necessary for safe and effective medical practice, PLAB exams consist of two parts: PLAB 1 and PLAB 2.

PLAB 1 evaluates theoretical knowledge through multiple-choice questions, while PLAB 2 assesses clinical skills through practical assessments and objective structured clinical examinations (OSCEs).

Successfully passing the PLAB exams opens doors to diverse career opportunities in the UK healthcare system, offering international medical graduates a pathway to pursue their professional aspirations.
