The NMC previously reduced the MBBS completion time from 10 to 9 years in June 2023.
The National Medical Commission (NMC) has proposed extending the MBBS course completion time to 10 years, including the compulsory rotatory medical internship, in a draft amendment to the Graduate Medical Education Regulations (GMER), 2023. This move reverses the 2023 reduction from 10 to 9 years and aims to support students facing academic or personal challenges. The commission invites public comments within 30 days. Key points include: - Up to 10 years from admission date to complete the course, including internship. - No more than four attempts for the first professional MBBS exam. The proposal aligns with the NMC’s Foreign Medical Graduate Licentiate (FMGL) regulations, 2021, and is expected to benefit students dealing with setbacks. Finalization will follow after reviewing feedback. (Source: The Economic Times)
