FMGE

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.
