The truth is that medical aspirants are waiting for the UHS MBBS and BDS merit list of 2024, whereas recent data of the MDCAT tentative ranking helps to develop the expected merit cutoffs successfully. Here is a detailed account of what the potential candidates intending to further their studies may encounter throughout the year.
Update Rankings and Aggregate of This Year MDCAT 2024
The recently released tentative list of medical admissions testifies to the cutthroat competition prevailing in Pakistan. Applicants to UHS degree programs have set very high scores that put them on a new pedestal. Below is a summary of the MDCAT 2024 rankings with corresponding aggregates:
• Rank 1000 – Aggregate: 95.27%
• Rank 1500 – Aggregate: 94.93%
• Rank 2000 – Aggregate: 94.6%
• Rank 3150 – Aggregate: 94.077%
• Rank 3400 – Aggregate: 93.95%
• Rank 4000 – Aggregate: 93.7181%
This high-scoring trend makes it clear that the competition will continue to be intense for the MBBS as well as the BDS admission session.
MBBS Admissions: MBBS 2024 Projected Merit Cutoff
As to the overall availability of MBBS seats, there are about 3,144 MBBS seats in total in the government medical colleges under UHS, thus the expected merit cutoff for MBBS is likely to be 93.9 %. This high aggregate corresponds to the general principle of raising the level of competition each year, growing the number of students waiting for limited quantities of seats with high grades.
Expected Merit for BDS 2024
For the BDS program, the total number of seats is one hundred eighty-nine. However, by using the tentative list ranking as well as aggregate scores, the expected closing merit in BDS is at a projection of approximately 93.7%. The BDS program generally has a slightly lower cut-off than the MBBS but given the high aggregates, this year shows a competitive cut-off in which only the best of the best get to be granted a place.
Final Thoughts
As expected, this year’s UHS’s MDCAT merit predictions show the hard work and preparation of candidates who wish to join the medical and dental science fields. As for the final list, there might be minor changes, still, students can feel fully prepared following these current requirements.
Those students who want to get admitted to medical universities should always be updated with the UHS updates and check out for the final merit lists to determine the probabilities of admission for the year 2024.
