Our system is a lot different from yours... its Primary, secondary and then college and University, Our exams are different and the way we progress is different...

[Dreamer]

even our postgraduate system is different ... take medicine for example
here in the UK on graduating your a Dr at the age of 23...you then go to do your "housejob" or FY1
this comprises 4 months attached to a medical rotation 2 expose you 2 medical specialities, 4 months in a surgical speciality and 4 months optional ( I did obstetrics and Gynaecology) but you can do more of medicine etc
you then get fully registsred with the GMC
You then move up 1 rung of the medical hiarachy and become an SHO Dr. Your 1st yr as an SHO dr is again made up of 3 4 month attachments but this time you can do all three in whatever takes your fancy ( this is prepareing you for specialisation) I did Geriatric medicine, Public Health and Trauma and Orthopedics. You then choose what you want to specialise in .... most specialities take 7 years to reach the top ( 2 further years as an SHO Dr in said field, followed by 5 years as a registra Dr ) before you become a consultant
as you move up the resposnibilities increase and so does the pay.... you must also pass the exams of the royal college of your chosen speciality... Exception is family medicine which only takes 3 years to complete... thats 2 years as an SHO Dr and 1 year as a Registra Dr

Medical schools are pretty much the same with slight variations, mines was like this:
Yr 1- basic sciences with emphesis mainly on physiology ( exams and Viva at end) plus regular exams every 3 months
Yr2 - basic sciences basic sciences with emphesis on pathology ( exams with viva- huge focus on histology) plus regular exams every 2 months
yr 3- clinical - general med and general suregery -focus on endocrine/metabolisim and cardio respiratory and also 2 month block of ethics and Pathology and clinical thereputics
yr 4- Obs and Gynae, ENT, neuro, peads, derm, orthopedics, psychiatry, basically all specialities ( by far the hardest yr) exams at end and Vivas ( exams every 2 months as well)
yr 5 - general med and general surgery- focus on geriatrics and locomotor systems
-final exams and vivas
-Graduation
Hope that helps!
