    No, a post basic BSc Nursing programme doesn't directly qualify you to become a medical doctor (MD or MBBS) since these are distinct professions with different educational paths and scopes of practice.

    However, post basic BSc Nursing does offer advanced knowledge and skills in Nursing, enabling nurses to specialize in various areas of healthcare, assume leadership roles, or pursue higher education in nursing or related fields. If your goal is to become a medical doctor, you'll typically need to follow the specific educational path required for medicine.
