Aptitude test
Our enrolling students of all the three faculties need to get their aptitude test certified in a Health Record Booklet. We ask all freshmen to undertake the following medical examinations in advance, bring the test results (English or Hungarian language only) with them, and present the documents at the Occupational Health Service (see below).
Availability only on weekdays at 1085 Budapest, Gyulai Pál utca 2., 2nd floor – Szent Rókus Clinical Building
The latest deadline for completing the Health Record Booklet is the last day of the training term before the examination period. (Please note that students are not allowed to register for any summer practices until their Health Record Booklet is completed.)

*A negative Quantiferon result is also acceptable but the test has to be organized and paid for by the student.
**By law, in the case of paediatric, obstetric/gynaecological and kitchen practices, a faecal bacteriology and Treponema AT test is required. For some courses and years, students can book their own appointments through the APTITUDE system. If the student is unable to do so, but in the opinion of the physician it is justified or necessary for the start of the internship, the physician/assistant can authorize the admission of this examinee or write to titkarsag.foglalkozasegeszsegugy@semmelweis.hu with a justification.

Let us hereby relay the message of the Medical Imaging Centre, regarding the professional rules and examination method of the X-rays, needed to complete your aptitude test.
During chest X-ray, all objects must be removed from the patient’s body, especially metals (jewellery, piercings, lingerie clasps, braces). The removal of lingerie, jewellery and textured upper body garments (frilled, crumpled, adorned with clasps jewels or staples) is needed in order to receive a diagnostic picture quality for the X-ray.
If students do not wish to participate in X-raying without any concealing garment, we ask that they please bring a simple and plain cotton t-shirt, which they can change into in the dressing room.
