KARACHI: Sindh government on Tuesday announced that students can get admissions to medical and dental colleges if they secured 50 percent marks in the Medical and Dental Admission College Test (MDCAT) 2021, ARY News reported.
A notification was issued by Sindh Health Department in this connection.
“Shaheed Mohtarma Benazir Bhutto Medical University (SMBBMU) Larkana is allowed to initiate admission process for the admission in MBBS/BDS in Medical and Dental Universities/Colleges (Public and Private Sector).”
“The overall weightage and terms and conditions for admission shall remain same and strictly be followed as per relevant rules,” the notification added.
