During this period, the students are involved in clinical work in the departments of the hospital. Medical entrance exams has been conducted for admission for these medical courses.

Medical colleges (Medical Schools) in India award MBBS degree. Licentiate qualifications in medicine and surgery, LMS or LMP, were also formerly awarded after a shorter medical course, originally at a “Medical School” rather than a “Medical College”.

In addition, the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Bombay formerly awarded a licentiate at L.M.S level, a membership (M.C.P.S) at MB BS level and a fellowship (FCPS) at MD level. The State Medical Faculty of West Bengal (previously of Bengal) similarly gave licentiates and memberships on an external basis.
