Hello,
i'm an Egyptian/Bulgarian medical student, i had a few questions please:
1-Does my Bulgarian nationality give me EC rights automatically ?
2-If yes, am i an " exempt person" from PLAB and can apply directly to GMC registration although i'll graduate from a medical school outside European union ?
Thank you

1. Yes, you are a EU national and thus can enjoy the same rights as other EU nationals, since Jan 2014, without restrictions and
2. See
Who is an “exempt person”? (click).

Did you read the link?
Who is an “exempt person”?
There are different ways an applicant may qualify as an exempt person. These are:
1. Nationals of EEA states (other than UK nationals) and Swiss nationals;
Whether your degree is acceptable is a different matter.
Ring them.

Hello, can anyone answer me urgently regarding the registration with the GMC, I am a Non-EU spouse of a British Citizen, so shall I exempt from the Plab? I mean can be treated as a spouse of EU national?
