The Australian Medical Council (AMC) examination assesses whether international medical graduates have the medical knowledge and clinical skills required to practice medicine safely in Australia. The exam forms part of the standard pathway for IMGs seeking registration with the Medical Board of Australia.

The AMC exam typically consists of two main stages:

• AMC MCQ Examination (Computer Adaptive Test – CAT)
A computer-based exam that tests applied medical knowledge, clinical reasoning, and decision-making.

• AMC Clinical Examination
An Objective Structured Clinical Examination (OSCE) where candidates interact with simulated patients across multiple stations to demonstrate clinical competence and communication skills.

The AMC exams are designed for international medical graduates who obtained their medical degrees outside Australia or New Zealand and wish to obtain registration with the Medical Board of Australia.

Applicants must create an account through the AMC portfolio system, verify their medical credentials, and meet eligibility requirements before applying for examinations.

The AMC MCQ exam evaluates:

• Applied medical knowledge
• Diagnostic reasoning and clinical decision-making
• Patient management and treatment planning
• Understanding of professional and ethical medical practice

The exam uses a computer adaptive format, meaning the difficulty of questions adjusts based on the candidate’s responses.

The AMC Clinical Examination is an OSCE-style exam that assesses real clinical skills. Candidates rotate through multiple stations where they interact with simulated patients and demonstrate their ability to:

• Take patient history
• Perform clinical examinations
• Communicate effectively
• Provide diagnosis and management plans
• Demonstrate professionalism and ethical behaviour

The AMC MCQ examination is delivered through Pearson VUE testing centres worldwide, allowing international candidates to take the exam in many countries.

The AMC Clinical Examination is typically conducted in Australia at AMC-approved examination centres.

Preparation time varies depending on the candidate’s clinical background. Many international medical graduates spend 4–6 months preparing for the AMC MCQ exam, followed by additional preparation for the clinical examination.

Structured study plans and practice with realistic exam questions are important for success.

After passing the AMC exams, international medical graduates may apply for provisional registration with the Medical Board of Australia through AHPRA, allowing them to work under supervision in approved healthcare settings.

Further supervised practice and training may be required before obtaining full registration.

Yes. International medical graduates must demonstrate English proficiency through approved tests such as:

• IELTS Academic
• OET Medicine

The exact requirements are determined by the Medical Board of Australia and AHPRA.

A structured preparation course like the one offered by International Medical Academy (IMA) helps candidates understand the AMC exam format, review high-yield medical topics, practice realistic exam questions, and develop strategies for both written and clinical examinations.

This preparation significantly improves confidence and readiness for the AMC licensing pathway.
