Description

The National Medical Commission's Postgraduate Medical Education Board (PGMEB) has requested that medical colleges and universities in India submit the tentative exam schedule for the 2020 batch of broad specialty PG courses so that the schedule for the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test for SuperSpecialty (NEET SS) 2023 exams can be determined.

The authorities gave them until on March 17, 2023, to provide the schedule. The authorities have requested the schedule because the final exams for the 2020 batch of these courses are likely to be postponed because their academic session began late due to COVID-19.

COVID Pandemic Delayed Academic Session 2020

According to the board, the academic year for general postgraduate medical courses begins on May 1 and the last date for admission under the Post Graduate Medical Education Regulation, 2000 was May 31. Previously, the final exam for these courses was held in March or April at medical universities.

PGMEB said, “However, due to COVID pandemic, the academic session 2020 was delayed and could start on July 1. Accordingly, final examination for these courses is also expected to be delayed.”

Aujendar Singh, deputy secretary, PGMEB, stated in an official notice to all medical university registrars, “In this regard, it is requested to provide the tentative examination schedule for the broad specialty PG courses for the 2020 batch. This information is urgently required for deciding the NEET SS exam 2023 schedule.” 

The board requested that the medical universities deliver the schedule as soon as possible and consider the directives to be of the "most urgent" type.
