(iii) meets the requirements set out in paragraph 41 (iii)-(vii); and

(iv) intends to leave the United Kingdom at the end of the leave granted under this paragraph unless he is successful in the PLAB Test and granted leave to remain to undertake a clinical attachment in accordance with paragraphs 75G to 75M of these Rules; and

Show it to your friend if he/she has already got the visa they will understand what this means.

In simple terms if the person has proof of next Plab test in the next 6 months and has not breached immigration rules and can look after self in the UK then should be no problem. Also Must not work in the UK or attend a course.
