FMGE

Here are the points that can help students prepare for the FMGE Entrance exam. 

• Use MBBS books for FMGE preparation. 
• Practice MCQs daily and focus on clinical subjects with high weightage.
• There is no negative marking, attempt every question.
• Take multiple mock tests to understand the timing of the two 150-question parts.

The FMGE syllabus is based on the complete MBBS syllabus. Students must include pre‑clinical, para‑clinical, and clinical subjects as given below. 

• Anatomy
• Physiology
• Pathology
• Medicine
• Surgery
• Obstetrics–Gynaecology
• Pediatrics
• ENT
• Ophthalmology

The FMGE cutoff is released once the FMGE results are released. Once the FMGE cutoff is out, those who beat the cutoff list will be called for the counselling process. Students must score a minimum of 150 out of 300 to be able to beat the cutoff.

Go through the following points to know the tips to crack the FMGE exam on your first attempt. 

• Study all MBBS subjects, separate preparation into Pre-Clinical, Para-Clinical, and Clinical sections, and follow the NBE syllabus. 
• Practice MCQs from high‑weight subjects and topics. 
• Practise full‑length mock tests to adjust to the 300-question paper. 
• Since there is no negative marking, attempt all questions to maximise the score.

The FMGE exam has 300 MCQs worth 300 marks. Each correct answer gives 1 mark, and there is no negative marking. The exam is divided into two sections, Part A and Part B; each section is of 2 and a half hours. To pass, one must score 150 out of 300.

There is currently no limit on total number of attempts for FMGE. You can appear for as many sessions as needed. Very soon, National Exit Test (NExT) will replace FMGE exam. It may introduce new regulations regarding attempt limits once implemented. As of now, no limit for re-attempts.
