Il corso di laurea è un corso ad accesso programmato a livello nazionale. È previsto un test d'ammissione sulla base dei cui risultati avviene l'assegnazione dei posti disponibili il cui numero è definito ogni anno dai dipartimenti di area medica di concerto con la Regione Toscana, sulla base delle effettive richieste del mercato del lavoro. Il test di ammissione, di contenuto identico in tutte le sedi di prova, è predisposto dal Ministero dell'università e della ricerca (MUR).
Le modalità e i contenuti della prova stessa sono definiti dal MUR anno per anno con apposito decreto, dal quale deriva il bando di Ateneo.
Relativamente gli obblighi formativi aggiuntivi (OFA), si precisa che, a partire dai risultati ottenuti nel test di ingresso (equivalente al concorso di ammissione) verranno esaminati i punteggi riportati nelle domande di: biologia, chimica e fisica.
I candidati che avranno conseguito un punteggio, nelle suddette singole discipline, inferiore ad 1/3 del punteggio massimo acquisibile, dovranno prendere visione (sul sito del CDS) del programma d’esame utile a colmare il debito formativo, attraverso modalità di autoapprendimento.
Gli obblighi formativi aggiuntivi, da assolvere entro il primo anno di corso e comunque prima di sostenere l’esame finale della disciplina stessa oggetto di OFA, si intendono soddisfatti avendo sostenuto con esito favorevole il rispettivo test di recupero.
Gli studenti che non abbiano soddisfatto gli OFA non possono essere ammessi a sostenere gli esami del secondo anno del corso di studio.
