The study of medicine varies greatly around the world. In the United States, medicine is taught in graduate school following completing a bachelor’s degree that is not directly related to medicine.
Elsewhere, such as the United Kingdom, students can enroll for undergraduate degrees.
But wherever you study medicine, clinical degrees span almost a fair number of years, more than non-clinical courses.
So it is best to ensure that you make a wise decision when you are committing yourself to a long course of study.
The Universities of Oxford and Cambridge topped the ranking prepared by “Times higher education”, which was reviewed by Al Arabiya.net, which came as follows:
University of Oxford in the United Kingdom, where medicine is at this university, a traditional course divided into pre-clinical stages and clinical stages.
About 150 students are accepted each year at the undergraduate level, and another 30 students are accepted into the postgraduate course, which intensifies medical studies in just 4 years.
For the first few years, students are taught theoretically with little patient contact.
In the later years of study, they move into the clinical phase and spend much more time at John Radcliffe Hospital.
As for the second place, the University of Cambridge in the United Kingdom also came, followed by Harvard in the United States, then Imperial College in the United Kingdom, and then the Chinese University of Chenghua, so that the American Stanford University came in sixth place.
The Canadian University of Toronto ranked seventh, then UCL University in the United Kingdom came in eighth place, followed by the American Yale University, and Kings College London University ranked tenth.
While the best Arab university for studying medicine was King Abdulaziz University in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, which ranked 94th in the world, followed by Imam Muhammad bin Saud University in the Arab world, ranked 101st in the world.
