Applicants to the MBBS programme in Malaysia must meet both the Malaysian Medical Council (MMC) requirements and the university's entry requirements.

The MMC requirements are as follows:

• At Year 12 (pre-university level, e.g., Matriculation, Foundation, Pre-Medical programme, A-Levels, STPM, etc.), students must have studied Biology, Chemistry, and Physics or Mathematics.
• At Year 10 or Year 11 (SPM, IGCSE, O-Levels, or equivalent), students must have achieved 5Bs in Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Mathematics/Additional Mathematics, and one other subject. However, this Year 10 or Year 11 requirement is waived if the student\u2019s Year 12 qualification is A-Levels or STPM.

Students who have completed the SPM, O-Level or equivalent programmes must first complete a recognised pre-university qualification as a basic requirement for entry to an undergraduate degree at NUMed Malaysia.

Whatever pre-university qualifications you offer, they should include the science subjects Biology, Chemistry, and Physics or Mathematics at a level equivalent to A-Level or STPM.

A UCAT result is currently not required for entry to NUMed Malaysia. The entrance requirements below apply to 2026 entry.
