The introduction of the National Exit Test (NExT) for MBBS students remains unconfirmed, despite speculation based on the new Competency-Based Medical Education (CBME) guidelines for 2024-25. While media reports suggest the exam may be implemented by 2029, there is no official update from the National Medical Commission (NMC). NExT was proposed to replace the NEET-PG exam but has been delayed indefinitely. This uncertainty leaves students in limbo as they await clarity on the new exam system and its potential impact on their medical career pathways.
