🔎 Important Notes for Students

📍 1. Dates Are Subject to Change

The calendar is not final — NBEMS may update some dates later through official notifications. Always check the NBEMS website (natboard.edu.in) for the latest bulletins.

📍 2. NEET PG 2026 Not in This Calendar

The exam calendar released does not list NEET PG 2026, which has caused concern among postgraduate medical aspirants. NBEMS has not included that date in this schedule, and it may be announced separately by the appropriate authority.

🎓 Why This Calendar Matters

· Helps students plan study schedules & revisions

· Lets aspirants prepare in advance for multiple entrance and exit exams

· Reduces last‑minute uncertainty about exam timing
