What is FMGE? 

The Foreign Medical Graduate Examination (FMGE) is a mandatory licensing test conducted by the National Board of Examinations in Medical Sciences (NBEMS) for Indian citizens and Overseas Citizens of India (OCI) who have earned their medical degrees abroad and wish to practice medicine in India. Introduced in 2002, FMGE is required for those who completed their medical education after March 15, 2002, and serves solely as a qualification exam—not for college admissions. Held twice a year, in June and December, it allows multiple attempts for those who do not pass initially. In 2023, the exam saw a low success rate, with only 8,309 out of 38,355 candidates passing, reflecting a 23% pass percentage.
