The National Board of Examinations-Admission (NBE) conducts the DNB Post Diploma Common Entrance Test (DNBPDCET) for students seeking entry into post-diploma Diplomate of National Board (DNB) courses in India. This computer-based test is designed for candidates who have completed a diploma in a relevant medical specialty and wish to pursue advanced training. The examination assesses eligibility and ranks applicants for admission to DNB courses in specialties such as Anaesthesiology, Dermatology, Nuclear Medicine, Obstetrics and Gynaecology, and others. The test is held annually at designated centers across the country, and successful candidates secure seats in accredited hospitals and institutions for further specialization.

Candidates must hold a postgraduate diploma in a relevant specialty recognized by the Medical Council of India or the erstwhile State Medical Councils. Applicants should have completed the required diploma training before the date specified by the NBE. There are no specific income or category-based reservations mentioned for this examination. The eligibility criteria are primarily based on the completion of the diploma and adherence to the training duration requirements.

Candidates must register online through the official NBE portal. After registration, they need to fill out the application form, upload required documents such as the diploma certificate, and pay the examination fee. The admit card will be issued to eligible candidates, which must be downloaded and presented at the designated test center. Candidates should ensure they meet all eligibility criteria and follow the instructions provided on the official website for a successful application.
