Final test from previous semesters

The National Board of Examinations (NBE) released the FMGE 2023 admit card on the official website, and the test is scheduled to be held on July 30 in computer-based mode.

The Foreign Medical Graduate Examination (FMGE), also known as the Screening Test for Foreign Medical Graduates, has been introduced through the Screening Test Regulations, 2002.

As per the regulations, "An Indian citizen or overseas citizen of India possessing a primary medical qualification awarded by any medical institution outside India who is desirous of getting provisional or permanent registration with the Medical Council of India or any State Medical Council on or after March 15, 2002 shall have to qualify a screening test conducted by the prescribed authority for that purpose as per the provisions of Section 13 of the Act."

The examination pattern:

The FMGE test consists of a single paper with 300 multiple-choice questions on it. There will only be four English-language answer choices for each question.
Out of the four response alternatives offered for each question, candidates must choose the right answer.

The paper shall be delivered in two parts to be taken in a single day, with each part comprising 150 questions to be attempted in 150 minutes.

The examination shall be a multiple-choice question (MCQ) test delivered using a computer network as per the prescribed scheme.

Negative Marking:

There shall be no negative marking.

Passing Marks:

A candidate shall be declared to have passed only if he or she obtains a minimum of 150 marks out of 300 in the examination. Results (pass or fail) for eligible candidates will be displayed on the NBEMS website. There is no provision for re-totaling or reevaluation.

There are no restrictions on the number of attempts that can be made by a candidate. However, the FMGE being a qualifying examination, once a candidate qualifies for the FMGE, he or she shall not be eligible to take the FMGE again. Any examination taken by a candidate in violation of this clause shall be treated as void and cancelled.

Between January and June, NCLEX pass rates increased for both licensed practical and vocational nurse candidates, according to second quarter results of 2023 pass rates across the U.S., released Aug. 3 by the National Council of State Boards of Nursing.

These results are the first to be published since the NCSBN debuted its new Next Generation NCLEX test format, which launched in April.

In the first quarter of the year between January and March, there were 56,972 U.S.-educated, first-time candidates who took the NCLEX test resulting in an 80.48 percent pass rate. 

But between April and June — following the launch of the new test format — there were 60,844 U.S.-educated, first-time candidates of which 94.32 percent passed.  

Compared to the same timeframe in 2022, only 82.19 percent had passed. 

"Although clinical judgment was being taught in prelicensure programs, NCSBN worked with educators to explain how the NGN was being constructed using the Clinical Judgment Measurement Model at its core," Philip Dickison, PhD, RN, chief operating officer, NCSBN said in an Aug. 3 news release. "Educators were introduced to the types of questions that would be included and the type of test experience a candidate will have. The results from the first quarter show that their collaboration was successful."

Individuals who were first-time test takers with an international education passed in the first quarter of 2023 at a percent rate of 39.86 percent, but in the second quarter 57.69 percent passed. 

Among repeat test takers who were U.S.-educated, 40.66 percent passed in the first quarter and 62.15 percent passed in the second quarter.
