This assessment of the student&#8217;s more general skills is the second part of the entrance exam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you don&#8217;t think you can pass the exam in time for September, some universities offer the opportunity to register for a program in biomedical science for their first year. These courses will increase your chances of passing the acceptance exam for the following year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Requirements_to_study_medicine_in_Belgium_for_international_students\"><\/span>Requirements to study medicine in Belgium for international students<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The fact that there are 3 official languages in Belgium means that the requirements to study medicine will vary from one establishment to another.

That being said, your student visa will buy you enough time to look for a job and get a work permit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You should bear in mind that you will face a lot of competition when applying to work as a doctor in Belgium. In other words, you&#8217;ll compete with locals and EU citizens, who may have an advantage over you if you are non-EU or do not speak the local language.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Moreover, we advise that you make use of your time while studying in Belgium to develop your French or Flemish language skills. Additionally, make sure you get high test scores in order to have a higher chance of getting a job in Belgium. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That being said, there are many job opportunities for students who have graduated from Belgian universities.
