FAQ: PRES 3, PLAB 2 and job hunt in Ireland

[@giuandreotti]

Hi Margo! Great video! Nice to know a little bit about your decision process. ☺ I'm going through the same, currently awaiting for my PRES 2 results... Oh, and by the way it is indeed the very same as PLAB 1, so the same resources can be used to prepare for it :) Wishing you luck with your job search! 💗 🍀

Please what’s the scenario of pres 3 like. Can you share some station’s pattern please

[@margomeetsworld5701]

Hi! I cant share exact stations but if you look at any plab 2 station its basically same with pres 3. Also when you join the academy for pres 3 they give you lots of examples of different stations. Very easy example I can give you - you have a patient(plastic hand😅) and you need to put a cannula.

[@Bbd.squadgames]

Please can you share: no of stations in Pres 3 , how many stations is required to pass. How many practical stations, also how many domain are you. Scores for example: in hx taking, interpersonal relationships with patient and Management

[@MsRita1994]

@@Bbd.squadgameshi! I think a good place for you to start looking into pres 3 is a handbook that IMC has on their website. It explains a lpt of details about the exam, structure, scores etc.

[@Dr57198]

Hey i just wanted to know if you know the process of getting registered in IMC for an img with GMC registration. All of the information are pretty vague in the website

[@margomeetsworld5701]

Hey! I think the process is very similar to how you registered with GMC only different exams. Ireland accepts plab 1 but has its own plab 2(pres 3)

[@WordSeed100]

Do you know of anyone that attended PLAB 2 academy in the UK and used that knowledge and PLAB 2 notes to pass PRES 3?

[@margomeetsworld5701]

Hi! I heard about one doctor that failed pres 3, went for plab 2 academy in uk and passed second pres 3 attempt. But I have no idea what other materials she used in the meantime

I am an img practicing in Belgium can you tell me which could be the most feasible path towards practicing in Ireland ?

[@margomeetsworld5701]

Hi! As far as I know if you been practicing in European union for 3 years you can register in Ireland without any exams.

[@WordSeed100]

Why not apply for an International Medical Graduate Clerkship program for 12 months outside of Ireland for experience before starting work in Ireland?

[@margomeetsworld5701]

Hi! I never heard about this opportunity but since I already live in Ireland it is not really an option for me. Ireland is my home now❤️

[@gabrielebanja553]

Evening doctor..... Are the pres 1 n plab 1 similar questions style??? N what textbooks are there for pres 1

[@margomeetsworld5701]

Hi! Pres 1 is documents check. Pres 2 is an exam. Prople say it is similar to plab 1. I personally can not tell because i only did plab 1

[@YASIR-zr7ot]

How is possible to registrate without internship? Can I do PRES exams without evidence of doing internship or you are just exception

[@margomeetsworld5701]

It depends if internship exists in your country or not. In my it didn’t so they allowed me to register.

[@StoicDoctor.]

Hi Doctor! Is it insanely difficult to get a job after this pathway?

[@margomeetsworld5701]

Hi! As I said in this video I am still looking. 7 months and counting. I can not advise anything until I myself will find a job. But there are many factors that can be considered- if you need a working visa, you cv and experience, your practice gap etc.
