Admission to medical schools (Humanmedizin) in Germany is considered one of the most competitive and demanding academic paths, and it is directly linked to the final secondary school grade (Abitur) and the national admission system (Numerus Clausus – NC).
Here is a precise and comprehensive explanation:
| Requirement | Explanation |
|---|---|
| Abitur certificate | Or an equivalent qualification (such as an international secondary diploma, or your home-country high school diploma combined with a preparatory Jahrkurs) |
| Very high grade average | Usually between 1.0 and 1.3 (the closer to 1.0, the better your chances) |
