In the US, medical degrees are only available at graduate level. Before you can apply to medical school, you need to complete at least three years (usually four) of ‘pre-med’ undergraduate study.The requirements for this are set by the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC). Students preparing for medical school are required to take courses in biology, chemistry, physics and English. Individual medical schools may also have additional requirements. The system is largely the same in Canada, though some Canadian medical schools accept applicants who have completed only two years of undergraduate studies. Some also offer fast-track medical degree programs that take three years, rather than four.

Usually, in Canada or USA, a student will undergo a first degree in any biological science course. Thereafter, the student will gain access to study medicine as a second degree program. This is also applicable for law.

In the UK, there is no access for an international student to study medicine directly. But you can do a pre-med course for one year.
