you may choose FCPS/MRCOG but please donot opt for MCPS as it is a minor diploma and you will not be considered for any specialist post in teaching set up.and never think of MD/MS.

Dear Wajiha!
1-why some authority told you that MCPS is internationally recognized? it is MRCP (and NOT MCPS)which is internationally recognized.
2- After doing minor diploma like DCH, DCP, MCPS etc you can get job of Specialist at THQ hospital or in private hospital as specialist. but you cannot become Consultant in teaching hospital.
3- saudi govt. accept MCPS for some specialities.
4- if you have time constraint or want to become specialist in short time, you may choose MCPS. if you are a brilliant student, then go for major degree like FCPS/MRCP.
wish you best of luck for your chosen career.
