Understanding these challenges will help you plan better and avoid unnecessary delays. In this guide, we break down the top 5 challenges you may face — and how Aura Health Solutions can support you every step of the way.

1️⃣ Primary Source Verification (PSV) Delays

One of the most common international medical licensing challenges is document verification. Most countries require Primary Source Verification (PSV) via platforms like DataFlow. Delays in PSV can stall your entire application.

Each country has its own licensing authority (e.g., DHA, MOH, DOH) with unique standards for:

• Recognized qualifications
• Minimum clinical hours
• Accepted institutions or degrees
• Bridging programs or exams

💡 Check your eligibility for UAE licenses.

3️⃣ Language Proficiency & Exam Format

Many international licensing exams are in English. Candidates often face challenges like:

• Medical vocabulary & clinical jargon
• Exam types like MCQs, OSCEs, and scenario-based assessments
• Time pressure and unfamiliar formats

📚 Aura provides preparation tools and exam strategies to help you succeed.

4️⃣ Licensing Exam Booking & Availability

Booking licensing exams can be difficult due to:

• Limited test dates and locations
• Platform confusion (e.g., Prometric, Pearson Vue)
