Licence and NMC

PUMS's own guide says that to practise in Poland you pass the LEK (it can be taken in English), complete a 13-month postgraduate internship and, as an English-track graduate, pass a Polish-language exam. That matters for India: the NMC expects you to be eligible for a licence in the country of study. See NMC rules for Poland.

Our view

Convenient for Indian applicants because of the New Delhi exam, but strict on English and expensive from year three. Students who mostly need a lower IELTS score should look at Łódź or Silesia.
