India has put on hold the National Exit Test (NExT), which was supposed to make it easier to get medical licenses and get into medical school. NExT was meant to take the place of both NEET-PG for graduate students and FMGE for foreign medical graduates who want to work as a doctor. It is a two-part test that measures both academic knowledge and real skills. It was supposed to have benefits like making tests more consistent and improving real skills, but its introduction has been pushed back. NEET-PG is still India’s only way to get into postgraduate medical school.
