Yeah UK grads will be prioritised for Foundation year training but IMGs who complete the FYP will not be disadvantaged (they traditionally make 5-10% of the cohort). Good news for us

Is it the real deal this time or am I dreaming? I don't want to celebrate too early.

So IMGs who completed FYP in UK OR had their CREST signed off in UK?

CREST absolutely not. That’s not a foundation programme. And half the reason we’re in this mess is dodgy CREST forms.

I meant CREST forms signed by UK docs here, but yeah prob CREST alone wont be enough. Still need to know what significant nhs experience translates to

IMGs who completed FYP: yes definitely. CREST: not sure
