We the Oct/Nov 2020 candidates requested for equal opportunity for PLAB 2 in March 2021
However it was overseen and We Oct/Nov 2021 candidates are suffering already

Now A Representative of GMC has spoken that there will be no prioritisation for OCT NOV 2020 Candidates in 2021 September

As If the unfair behaviour of march 2021 wasnt enough 
We are again made to suffer

It is therefore requested as our  previous plea regarding Equal opportunity in March 2021 was not granted 
Kindly alott the October and November 2020 candidates a guaranteed seat in next release in Sept 2021 to appear in Plab 2 early 2022.

 

 

 

 

 

Reference:GMC new decision to prioritize and guarantee Plab 2 Place for people who passed before Oct 2020 and Leave the rest out to unguarenteed few Plab 2 Spots

It is stated that the recent decision regarding leaving out candidates who after continous hard work and Twice cancelling of PLAB 1 Exam of June and September 2020 
They managed to Pass Plab 1 in such extreme situation of Covid 19
This unfair Decision have disappointed us greatly 
Unfortunately GMC was about offering equal chances 

It is to bring to your kind knowledge people who passed exam in 2019 and earlier 2020 had a complete year or even more to pass exam and many are resitting PLAB 2 exam after being unsuccessful the first time 

Where these people are getting multiple PLAB 2 attempts and had a complete year ,some even had 2 years, on top of this 
Whats even worse  they are getting guaranteed spots in March 2021
Where the rest are left to their fortunate or should I say unfortunate luck

Not to forget the disorganised Release of PLAB 2 Dates in Jan 2021 many Oct and Nov Plab 1 passer couldt get a seat and now again they are the one to suffer

Time is precious 
Please don't make us sit and waste our time because some people couldt pass PLAB 2 IN 1 to 2 years and in multiple attempts

GMC says"

1 – 5 March: we’ll invite doctors who passed PLAB 1 in 2018 to book their test. Every candidate in this phase is guaranteed a place if they book during this period.

8 – 12 March: we’ll invite doctors who passed PLAB 1 in 2019 to book their test. Every candidate in this phase is guaranteed a place if they book during this period.

15 – 19 March: we’ll invite doctors who passed PLAB 1 in March, June and September 2020 to book their test. Every candidate in this phase is guaranteed a place if they book during this period.

 

Why not to give people who passed plab 1 after sept 2020 also a guaranteed PLAB 2 seat as others 

we’ll invite doctors who passed PLAB 1 in October and November 2020 to book their test.
22 – 26 March: Every candidate in this phase will have an opportunity to book a seat, but it’s very unlikely there’ll be enough places for everyone.

"" That's not equal opportunity. ""

 

Also

There should be a Penalty on Cancellation of PLAB 2, if cancelled less than 8 weeks before Exam

As people from outside UK are waiting for PLAB 2 seat and many people cancel it at nick of time like few weeks or even few days before Exam

Which wastes a PLAB 2 seat and makes it impossible for other PLAB 2 candidates outside United Kingdom to Book and Appear on that Seat 

Keeping in view the long planning, Visa Proces, COVID quarantine , and arranging accomdation and the document for the trip 

 

It's is therefore our kindest request to reconsider and grant people who passed PLAB 1 after September 2020 , PLAB 2 seat in 2021 as others are guaranteed

And

There should be a Penalty on Cancellation of PLAB 2, if cancelled less than 8 weeks before Exam

As it makes it impossible for foreign candidates to Appear in such short time

Thats all I wanted to convey to "The General Medical Council"
