NBEMS Declares FMGE October 2026 Results: 9,354 Candidates Qualify

The National Board of Examinations in Medical Sciences (NBEMS) has officially declared the results for the Foreign Medical Graduate Examination (FMGE) held in October 2026. Candidates who participated in the screening test on October 31, 2026, can now verify their qualifying status by accessing the result PDF available on the official NBEMS website, natboard.edu.in.

The published result document provides a comprehensive list of candidates, detailing their application sequence numbers, roll numbers, and total marks secured out of a maximum of 300. To check their individual results, candidates are advised to download the PDF and use the search function to locate their specific roll number.

Key Statistics and Qualifying Criteria

According to the data released by the board, a total of 9,354 candidates successfully qualified for the examination. Out of the 42,113 total entries in the result document, 31,539 candidates did not meet the minimum qualifying threshold. The overall pass percentage for this session is recorded at 22.87 percent, a figure calculated based on the 40,893 candidates whose results were declared as either pass or fail, excluding those who were absent or had their results withheld.

The examination, which serves as a mandatory screening test for Indian and Overseas Citizens of India who have completed their primary medical education abroad, requires candidates to score at least 150 marks out of 300 to pass. This represents a 50 percent qualifying requirement. NBEMS noted that 1,190 candidates were marked absent, and the results for 30 candidates have been withheld.

Technical Review and Scorecard Availability

In the interest of fairness, the NBEMS conducted a post-examination review of all questions and answer keys with the assistance of subject experts. The board confirmed that marks were awarded to all candidates for questions identified as technically incorrect. Furthermore, in instances where two answers were deemed correct, credit was given to candidates who selected either of the accepted options.

While the result PDF is currently available for public viewing, the board has scheduled the release of individual scorecards for November 20, 2026. From that date, candidates will be able to log in to the official portal using their credentials to download their detailed scorecards, which will contain specific examination performance data. Candidates are encouraged to save a copy of their scorecard for their records once it becomes available.
