Each part uses time-locked sections. Part A and Part B are each divided into three blocks of 50 questions and 50 minutes. When a block's timer ends it locks and you cannot go back, so move at roughly one question per minute.
What to bring
FMGE exam dates — previous years
The pattern is consistent: the June session in summer, the December session in January of the following year.
| Session | Exam date | Appeared | Pass rate |
|---|---|---|---|
| June 2026Result out | June 28, 2026 | 37,448 | 12.77% |
| December 2025 | January 17, 2026 | 42,872 | 23.4% |
| June 2025 | June 2025 | 36,034 | 18.6% |
| December 2024 | January 12, 2025 | 44,390 | 29.6% |
| June 2024 | June 2024 | 34,608 | 20.9% |
| December 2023 | January 2024 | 37,827 | 20.6% |
| June 2023 | June 2023 | 24,250 | 10.2% |
| December 2022 | January 2023 | 30,548 | 32.2% |
| June 2022 | June 2022 | 22,092 | 10.6% |
December sessions consistently show higher pass rates than June sessions. More preparation time between finishing MBBS and the January exam is the most likely reason. If you have a choice between sessions, December is the stronger bet.
How registration works
1
Get your EC first
Apply for an Eligibility Certificate from the NMC at nmc.org.in before anything else. Without it you cannot complete the FMGE application, and processing takes time.
2
Create your account
Register at natboard.edu.in when the bulletin is released. Keep your login credentials safe — you will use them for every future session.
3
Submit documents
Upload your passport, foreign degree with Embassy attestation, NMC Eligibility Certificate, and photograph. Everything must match your application details exactly.
4
Pay and confirm
Pay ₹6,195 online and save the confirmation. The fee is non-refundable. Watch for any NBEMS notice about an edit window after submission.
Things that trip people up
- The December session exam is held in January of the following year, not in December itself. The December label refers to the registration window, not the exam date. Plan your preparation timeline accordingly.
- Your Eligibility Certificate from the NMC must be valid and ready before you apply. Do not wait for the application window to open to start the EC process — begin it months in advance.
- NBEMS can and does revise tentative dates. Confirm directly at natboard.edu.in before booking travel, taking leave from work, or rearranging an internship.
- The application form can only be submitted once. Review everything, especially your degree documents and passport details, before you submit. Errors can only be corrected during the specific edit windows NBEMS opens.
