Limitations in taking part at the examination:

A student will have only four chances to pass a particular examination. Chances of the examination will be counted in the case of MBBS Part-I from the period the student was scheduled to appear on the basis of his/her admission; in the case of MBBS Part-Ii from the period of 2 years after passing the MBBS Part-I, in the case of MBBS Part-III from the period of 1 year after passing the MBBS Part-II examination. However students failing to pass any particular examination within four chances may be granted special permission (on being petitioned) by the Faculty of Medicine. This provision will be limited to MBBS Part-II and MBBS Part-III examinations. This provision of special permission will not be applicable in the case of MBBS Part-I examination. Failure to appear at the examination (due to any reason) amounts to failure and will not permit the student to have another chance in lieu of non-appearing at any examination.
