ISLAMABAD: Big news for med aspirants as the Pakistan Medical and Dental Council (PMDC) declared a big change in the medical entrance exam system with the introduction of a question bank for the Medical and Dental College Admission Test (MDCAT) 2025.
The move is part of the Council’s overall strategy to digitalise its functions and increase transparency. Addressing a briefing in Islamabad, PMDC President Professor Dr. Rizwan Taj said that student registration and monitoring would be done by the Council, while question papers, exams, and marking would be given to public universities to guarantee impartiality.
A new question bank for MDCAT has been developed on the consensus syllabus endorsed by all provinces. This initiative is being taken to end errors, regional issues, and ensure equal preparation opportunities for students across the country.
Over 97,000 candidates have so far registered for MDCAT 2025, with the figure likely to touch 150,000 by the end of registration. The test will be held at 30 designated centers across the nation.
Federal Health Minister Syed Mustafa Kamal, who had launched the question bank, termed the move “a vital step towards the restoration of public confidence,” assuring again that transparency will never be compromised.
