The Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) is preparing to conduct the Detailed Medical Examination (DME) for candidates who cleared the SSC GD Physical Efficiency Test/Physical Standard Test (PET/PST) 2025.

The medical exam is tentatively scheduled to begin around October 15, 2025. The official notification for the Document Verification (DV)/DME dates will be released shortly. Only those SSC GD 2025 candidates who passed the PET/PST will be called for the DV/DME.

Candidates whose names appear on the merit list will need to attend the DME. The SSC GD medical admit card 2025 will notify candidates of their specific date and time for the examination.

SSC GD Detailed and Review Medical Examinations for 2025

The Detailed Medical Examination (DME) and subsequent Review Medical Examination (RME) are critical stages designed to ensure candidates for the General Duty Constable positions meet the rigorous physical and medical standards required for service. These assessments comprehensively check a candidate's fitness, and failure in any part of the DME results in an "Unfit" declaration.

Detailed Medical Examination (DME) Components

The DME is a multi-level assessment covering various aspects of a candidate's physical health:

  • Visual Standards: A minimum corrected visual acuity of 6/9 in the weaker eye is mandatory.
  • Hearing Standards: This assesses a candidate's hearing ability, examining for issues like deafness, discharge, hearing deficits and the condition of the eardrums.
  • Dental Examination: Evaluates tooth loss, decay and adequacy of teeth for proper chewing, alongside an inspection of the gums.
  • Standing Examination: Checks the normal function and integrity of the head, neck, chest wall and upper extremities (fingers to shoulder joints).
  • Lower Extremities Examination: Inspects both lower limbs for abnormalities like flat feet, bow legs and hammer toe.
  • Systemic Examinations: Also included are checks for skin diseases, leprosy, conditions of the inguinal region and genitals, heart and vascular system and an examination of the abdomen.

Review Medical Examination (RME) Process

Candidates declared "Unfit" during the DME have the right to request a Review Medical Examination (RME).

  • Submission: Unfit candidates must submit a signed intimation clearly stating the reasons for their initial "Unfit" status.
  • Focus: The RME typically takes place the day after the DME and is strictly focused on the specific deficiencies for which the candidate was previously declared unfit. It is not a complete reevaluation of all medical aspects.
  • Purpose: The RME offers candidates a fair opportunity to present their case and evidence, clarifying any ambiguities or potential errors from the initial DME assessment and allowing for a reconsideration of their medical fitness. Candidates should concentrate on providing detailed explanations and documentation related only to the initial areas of concern.
