Issuing clarification regarding the mandatory requirement of dissertation/thesis submission to appear in the final postgraduate medical examination, the Postgraduate Medical Education Board (PGMEB) of the National Medical Commission (NMC) has mentioned that the students will not be barred from appearing in the exam if they fail to obtain the approval of dissertation/thesis from the HoD.
Writing to the Vice Chancellors of Health Science Universities in India and the Deans/Principals of the Medical Colleges/Institutions in India, the Commission further added that the dissertation now accounts for 5% of the total marks in the clinical/practical and viva voce components, meaning 20 marks out of the total marks allocated for these components are reserved for the dissertation.
