NEW DELHI: The Centre has rubbished social media reports claiming leak of questions to be asked in the Foreign Medical Graduate Examination (FMGE) scheduled to be held on Saturday.
FMGE is a screening test which is taken by thousands of Indians who graduate from medical colleges abroad. One must pass this exam to apply for a licence to practice in the country.
Sources in the health ministry said there have been reports of some people claiming on social media about the availability of FMGE questions for a price.”This is completely misleading and untrue. FMGE is a computer-based test. The questions are prepared a few hours before the exam. Therefore, it is not possible for anyone to have them already. Examinees should beware of such cheats,” said an official.
Health secretary Apurva Chandra urged examinees to not fall prey to exhortations from scamsters claiming to have access to FMGE questions. “The questions will be prepared in the morning only and it will be made available to the examinees after they key in their password,” he said.
