New Delhi: Nearly four out of five foreign medical graduates (FMGs) who appeared in the Oct 2026 Foreign Medical Graduate Examination, mandatory for foreign-trained doctors seeking to practise in India, failed to qualify.
Only 9,354 candidates passed, as against 31,539 who failed, taking the pass percentage to 22.9%. The results come after months of protests by FMGs over the June examination, following which the National Board of Examinations in Medical Sciences announced a series of measures, based on a committee’s recommendations. However, the national FMG In-charge, said feedback suggested the Oct paper didn’t appear to follow the recommendations. — Anuja Jaiswal
