FMGE Pass Percentage & Results Trend
Here's what was reported for recent sessions. These figures come from news and education websites, not an official NBEMS summary, and some sources differ slightly.
| Session | Reported outcome |
|---|---|
| June 2025 | 6,707 of 36,034 qualified — about 18.6% |
| December 2025 | About 10,264 qualified; more than 77% did not (pass rate under 23%) |

| October 2026 (additional session) | Results awaited at the time of writing |
What changed for 2026–2027
- NBEMS announced an additional session on 31 October 2026.
- FMGE is planned to run three times a year from 2027.
- Reports describe a rebalanced paper — roughly 30% easy, 50% moderate and 20% difficult questions — and a proposed fee reduction. Confirm current details on the official NBEMS website.
- The National Exit Test (NExT) has been reported as FMGE's eventual replacement, but it has been postponed, so FMGE continues for now.
What these numbers mean for you
A low pass rate sounds frightening, but look at what it actually tells you: most candidates fall short, and many pass on a later attempt. The exam's rules haven't changed — 300 questions, 150 to qualify, no negative marking. What changes between a failed attempt and a passed one is almost always how the preparation was spent.
