National Exit Exam For MBBS |Â NEXT MBBS Question Pattern
A single examination, termed NEXT (National Exit Exam for MBBS), which will replace the NEET-PG and MCI Screening exams as the final step in the medical school admissions process (FMGE: Foreign Medical Graduate Examination). Starting in 2022, it will be put into practice.
Graduates of medical schools in India and abroad will be required to sit for this exam. Internships will begin for students who pass the NEXT exit exam. Allotment of post-graduate (MD, MS, DNB, and diploma) seats in Government and private medical colleges in India will also be based on NEXT exam score (rank).
Pattern of NEXT exam
NEXT will comprise of two parts: Theory (NEXT-1) and practical (NEXT-2). Multiple-choice questions will be used to assess knowledge of theory (MCQs). Following final year MBBS and before internship, NEXT-1 will be held. Students will begin internships after completing NEXT-1. Those who pass the theory test (NEXT-1) must then pass the practical test (NEXT-2) at the end of their internship. After your internship, you will be able to apply for a PG seat thanks to the score you earned in NEXT-1. To better understand the strategy for the national exit test syllabus, consider the diagram below.
The NEXT-2 test will be pass/fail. The grades you earn in NEXT-2 will have no bearing on how many PG seats you get. As a result, NEXT-1 will serve as both a qualification test and a competition test.
