Each phase has a theory component and a separate practical/viva component. Theory results are typically declared before the practical schedule is confirmed. TNMGRMU also conducts supplementary examinations for students with arrears in any phase. Knowing which subjects fall in which phase lets you build a focused preparation calendar well ahead of the official timetable release.
Students often wait for the timetable before starting serious preparation. That is a pattern worth breaking. Here is how to use the gap productively:
Review previous year papers now. TNMGRMU question patterns are consistent across years. Solving three to four years of papers for your current phase subjects will immediately show you which topics carry the most marks.
Map your syllabus. The NMC CBME syllabus is the same across phases regardless of university, but TNMGRMU paper trends show which chapters appear most frequently. Match your syllabus to those trends early.
Plan for practicals and viva separately. Many students over-index on theory and underestimate practical preparation time. Build viva prep into your schedule from the start rather than treating it as an afterthought.
Watch the official notification window. TNMGRMU typically releases exam notifications well before the session begins. Keep an eye on the official website and your college notice board during this window. Note that exam schedules are subject to revision; always verify from the official notification before making any travel or accommodation plans.
The 2026 exam dates have not yet been confirmed on this page. TNMGRMU will publish the official timetable through its website and through affiliated colleges. This page will be updated as soon as the notification is released. For the most current schedule, check the official TNMGRMU website directly.
Yes. TNMGRMU sets a single university-wide timetable that applies to all affiliated medical colleges in Tamil Nadu. Individual colleges do not set their own dates for university examinations. The college administration may communicate the schedule internally, but the timetable itself comes from TNMGRMU.
The timetable is available as a PDF notification from the official TNMGRMU website under the Examinations or Notifications section. Your college notice board will also display it once the notification is issued. Download the PDF directly from the official source rather than relying on screenshots shared on social media, as those may be outdated or incorrect.
