KARACHI: Institute of Business Administration (IBA) Karachi has canceled the re-conduct of Medical and Dental College Admission Test (MDCAT).

Reports say that the institution has informed the authorities in this regard citing shortage of experts and other issues.

It may be recalled that the Sindh High Court (SHC) had on October 26 ordered the authorities to re-conduct the MDCAT test in four weeks.

The high court issued the order while hearing petitions against alleged irregularities in the test conducted earlier this year for MBBS and BDS admissions.

MDCAT for the academic year 2024-25 was conducted by Dow University of Health Sciences. However, it faced heavy criticism from the candidates and their parents, who accused the university administration of unprofessional behavior during the test.

The students and parents had demanded the Sindh government to take immediate action against the university on allegations of mismanagement and mismanagement.
