Groningen Medical School (
BSc in Medicine), which lasts for three years, is determined by the submission of a specific candidate's file and is accompanied by special examinations, while a very good knowledge of the
English language is necessary. The

conditions of admission and the skills that a young person should have and the decision to choose
