For a candidate looking to apply for the EFOG-EBCOG exam, your primary aim must be to demonstrate the minimum level of knowledge recognised by the EBCOG Examination Committee. Assessing the knowledge gained during training in general Obstetrics and Gynaecology, the EBCOG Examination is a challenging yet rewarding journey. Here let’s check whether you are eligible to apply for this exam.

How to Apply for the Exam

Information about the online submission of applications for the EFOG-EBCOG Examination is uploaded onto the EBCOG website every year, several months before the exam day.  An online application form will be made available, and candidates must fill it out and submit it electronically along with the required documents to sit for the exam.

You are eligible to apply for the upcoming EFOG-EBCOG exam if you meet the following requirements:

• You must hold a primary medical degree and be a qualified medical doctor.
• You must be listed on the Register of Medical Practitioners in your country.
