Pakistan Medical Commission (PMC) on Thursday said that the next Medical and Dental College Admission Test (MDCAT) will be conducted nationwide through its central computerised system.
A PMC spokesperson said the commission will soon announce the date for the next test.
He advised students and parents to avoid following inauthentic and misleading information about MDCAT. PMC already announced the change to its policy of allowing only three National Licensing Exam (NLE) attempts as now there will be no limit to the number of attempts during the prescribed period of five years.
The spokesperson said that the Medical and Dental Council has duly approved modification in NLE policy requiring ‘qualification of NLE to the extent that a student must qualify the NLE (Step 1 and Step 2, as applicable) within a maximum period of five years from the date of completion of house job or the first attempt, whichever is earlier.’
He added the time limitation will not apply to applicants who already hold a foreign practitioner’s license.
