This decision was made due to unforeseen circumstances, as announced by the PMDC examination department in a notification. The change affects all candidates who were scheduled to take the test. The NRE is a crucial part of the registration procedure for Pakistani medical and dental graduates who have completed their education abroad. It ensures that these graduates meet the necessary medical and dental knowledge and competency standards before they can proceed with their registration in Pakistan. Candidates are strongly advised to take note of the new date and adhere to any additional instructions issued by the PMDC. The NRE is an integral component of the regulatory system aimed at maintaining the high professional standards expected of medical and dental practitioners seeking registration in Pakistan.",
