Simran Vohra 14th Aug, 2025

Hello!

Id you didn’t pass FMGE you can apply for MBA course.You can choose specializations like Hospital & Healthcare Management, Hospital Administration, Pharmaceutical Management, or even General MBA. Give entrance exams like CAT,MAT,XAT,CMAT or SNAP to get top colleges or you can apply to private Universities that accept students without any entrance exam.

Some good colleges for  MBAs are Symbiosis Institute of Health Sciences (Pune), Tata Institute of Social Sciences , KJ Somaiya (Mumbai), Apollo Institute of Hospital Administration (Hyderabad),  Manipal Academy of Higher Education or IIMs etc.

Hello Zaid

As you have filled FMGE Form for July 2025 and have also gotten  the admit card but won't be able t o attend the exam due to some issues, YOU WILL NOT FACE ANY PROBLEMS IN FUTURE ATTEMPTS.

Missing the exam is treated as an unused attempts, but it doesn't affect your future attempt as there is no restrictions or penalties.

So focus on your health first and give the exam later.

Thank You!!!

My NEET ug scorecard was lost from 2020 , and next year I have to appear for my fmge. I have admit card plus a cropped photocopy of original scorecard (photo not visible) . I have tried rti to NTA , but that didnt helped. What should I do now?

Kishan Bhakat 21st Jun, 2025

hi,

If your NEET UG 2020 scorecard is lost, don’t worry too much—it can be sorted out with the right steps. Since you already tried RTI and it didn’t help, you should directly contact NTA through their helpline and email and clearly explain your problem. Sometimes they respond better when you keep following up regularly. Also, try checking DigiLocker using your old NEET registration details because some students have found their old scorecards there even after a few years. You should also ask your medical college if they have a copy because most colleges keep admission documents.

Fmge application form submission date got completed yesterday midnight (may17 11:55pm) .thought 18 th may as last date just realised I missed it on 22nd may edit window gonna open is there any chance that I can apply for exam, please help me with this as soon as possible

Ayush Madanpotra 25th Jul, 2025

The last date to fill the FMGE June 2025 application form was 17 May 2025 till 11:55 PM. You missed the deadline. You thought 18 May was the last date, but the form closed the night before.

Now, the edit window that will open on 22 May 2025 is only for those who had already filled and submitted the form on time. It is not for new registrations. So if you did not submit the form before the deadline, you cannot apply now.

The National Board of Examinations in Medical Sciences (NBEMS) does not allow any new applications after the last date is over. So you cannot apply now for the July 2025 FMGE exam.

You will have to wait for the next FMGE session, which will be held in December 2025. The application for that session may open in October or November 2025. You should keep checking the NBEMS official website for updates.

If you still want to try, you can contact NBEMS helpdesk and explain your situation. But chances are very low that they will allow you now.

Suganya M 25th Apr, 2025

The FMGE (Foreign Medical Graduate Examination) is a licensing exam conducted by the National Board of Examinations (NBE) for Indian citizens who have completed their medical education abroad and wish to practice in India. To clear FMGE, you need a solid preparation strategy and must cover the entire MBBS syllabus thoroughly.

Here’s a breakdown of the subjects you need to study :

Pre-clinical Subjects :

  • Anatomy

  • Physiology

  • Biochemistry

Para-clinical Subjects :

  • Pathology

  • Microbiology

  • Pharmacology

  • Forensic Medicine

Clinical Subjects :

  • Medicine (including Dermatology and Psychiatry)

  • Surgery (including Orthopedics and Anesthesia)

  • Obstetrics and Gynecology

  • Pediatrics

  • Ophthalmology

  • ENT

  • Preventive and Social Medicine (PSM)

Tips to Prepare Effectively :

  • Focus on high-yield topics like medicine, surgery, OBG, and PSM since they carry more weightage.

  • Use standard textbooks and reliable MCQ books like FMGE Solutions by Dr. Deepak Marwah, or Mudit Khanna series.

  • Watch FMGE-specific video lectures from platforms like Marrow, Prepladder, or DAMS .

  • Solve previous year papers and take regular mock tests to build confidence and identify weak areas.

  • Make short notes for revision and focus more on clinical understanding than just mugging facts.

The key to cracking FMGE is consistent study, revision, and MCQ practice . Aim to study 8–10 hours a day and make a realistic timetable covering all subjects in rotation.

How can I become a doctor in India without completing my NEET UG? I have completed my medical degree in Belarus and am currently planning to pursue my postgraduate degree in the United Kingdom. Career 360.com clearly states that there are certain exemptions for countries such as Australia, the United Kingdom, New Zealand, and a few others. There is no requirement to complete FMGE after obtaining a degree from these countries. Its stated in the following webpage of career 360

Afreen 21st Apr, 2025

To practice medicine in India without completing NEET UG, you'll need to leverage your medical degree from Belarus and upcoming postgraduate degree from the UK. Since the UK is one of the countries exempt from the Foreign Medical Graduates Examination (FMGE), you might be eligible to practice in India without taking the exam.


Key Requirements:


- Registration in the UK: You'll need to register with the General Medical Council (GMC) in the UK, which involves verifying your medical degree and completing any necessary exams, such as the PLAB test.

- Specialist Registration: After completing your postgraduate degree in the UK, you'll need to register as a specialist doctor with the GMC. This registration might exempt you from the FMGE requirement in India.¹ ²

- Indian Registration: With your UK specialist registration, you can apply for registration with the National Medical Commission (NMC) in India. This might allow you to practice medicine in India without taking the FMGE exam.³


Steps to Consider:


1. Verify your medical degree: Get your medical degree from Belarus verified by the GMC in the UK.

2. Complete your postgraduate degree: Finish your postgraduate degree in the UK and register as a specialist doctor with the GMC.

3. Apply for Indian registration: Submit your application for registration with the NMC in India, providing your UK specialist registration and other required documents.

4. Check with Indian authorities Confirm with the NMC and other relevant authorities in India that you're eligible to practice medicine without taking the FMGE exam.


It's essential to consult with the GMC, NMC, and other relevant authorities to ensure you meet all the requirements. Additionally, consider seeking guidance from a medical professional or a consultant familiar with the registration process for international medical graduates.

I am a a foreign medical student cleared my fmge exam and currently doing my internship I did not received my provisional registration yet I fulfill all the eligibility criteria for inicet exam can I enter my Maharashtra medical council application number in place of provisional registration number

Devanshi Goyal 7th May, 2025

HELLO,

Congratulations on clearing your FMGE and beginning your internship.

regarding the INI-CET (Institute of National Importance Combined Entrance Test) eligibility:

so to be eligible, you must typically have provisional or permanent registration with MCI/NMC or a state medical council and you need to provide the relevant registration number during the application process.

unfortunately an application number is not equivalent to a provisional registration number because the INI-CET form is very specific they require a valid registration number which confirms that you are officially registered as a medical practitioner with the NMC or a recognized State Medical Council.

Using just your application number may cause your application to be rejected during document verification even if you meet all eligibility criteria.

so what you can do is :

contact MMC immediately to check the status of your provisional registration and request expedited processing if possible.

Reach out to the INI-CET helpdesk or AIIMS exam authorities to ask if there is any temporary provision or alternative documentation they accept if your provisional number is pending.

Hope this helps

Without medical registration in India, what are the best career options I can explore? Im particularly interested in healthcare-related fields that dont require an MBBS license, such as PhD programs, health informatics, and health data science. Suggestions on suitable courses, certifications, or job roles in these fields would be helpful.
