Can graduates of medical schools in Malaysia train in the US?

The country has a WFME-recognized accreditor. Graduates of schools it accredits meet ECFMG's accreditation requirement for US residency.

  • Malaysian Medical Council (MMC): recognized until 2033 April
  • Medical Council of Ireland (MCI): recognized until 2030 June

A school must itself be accredited by that agency. Every country's status.
