Curriculum and clinical preparation
The Faculty of Medicine information sheet says students study in English and are also obliged to take Czech language training and pass Czech examinations in the first, second, third and fourth years. The reason is practical: students need Czech communication for clinical training with patients.
Years 1-2
Pre-clinical sciences such as anatomy, physiology, biochemistry, histology and related foundations.
Middle years
Pathology, microbiology, pharmacology, pathological physiology and the move toward clinical subjects.
Clinical years
Hospital-based disciplines and patient-facing training, supported by Czech medical communication.
Czech language
Czech exams in the first four years support later patient communication.
Foundation route
Masaryk's Faculty of Medicine also runs a 20-week Foundation Programme for students aiming for General Medicine or Dentistry. It is useful for students who want in-person science preparation on the Brno campus.
Masaryk also lists Dentistry through the Faculty of Medicine and Pharmacy through the Faculty of Pharmacy. Their admission models are not identical to General Medicine.
Masaryk Medicine preparation needs three real subject blocks. Medimentor helps applicants build a timed Chemistry, Biology and Physics plan, practise MCQ recall and avoid underpreparing Physics because it is tested with the same question count as the other sciences.
Chemistry
Practise reactions, calculations and theory under multiple-choice timing.
Biology
Build recall for human biology and general biology topics from the faculty syllabi.
Physics
Keep Physics in the weekly plan from the beginning, not as a late-stage catch-up subject.
