2. The text
Students can get higher medical education in Ukraine at institutions called medical universities, which are separate from traditional universities Ukrainian students do not need any preliminary higher education to enter a medical university. The procedure of admission to medical universities has changed greatly recently. Nowadays Ukrainian school-leavers do not take any entrance exams. Medical universities admit their students on the basis of the results of the External Independent Testing, which students take after their final school year. They have to pass tests in Ukrainian Language and Literature, Mathematics or the History of Ukraine and Biology or Chemistry successfully to enter a medical university.
The course of studies lasts 6 years. For two years medical students learn so-called pre-clinical subjects, such as Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Human Anatomy, Histology. They also learn a foreign language, as well as philosophy, psychology and the fundamentals of economics. From the third to the fifth year the students have clinical subjects. They learn to diagnose different diseases, to carry out laboratory analyses and treat people for different diseases.
After their third year of studies medical students have a practical training, during which they work as nurses. After the fourth year they have another practical training. This time they work as doctors' assistants at therapeutic, surgical and other departments in hospitals. During their 6-th year they gain more experience in one of the 3 main clinical subjects: Therapy, Surgery or Obstetrics. After the 6th year of studies they work as interns at a large hospital for two years, specializing in one of the fields of medicine. So, the course of medical studies is long, but it allows future doctors to get a good knowledge of medicine and practical experience, necessary for treating people.
