“The investigative committee admitted that the entire test system is compromised,” the SHC ruled in its written order.
The court ruled that there is no other option but to take the test again, adding that the representatives of the Sindh government, Pakistan Medical and Dental Council (PMDC), and Dow University agreed on re-testing.
The SHC directed the provincial government, secretary health, and secretary board of universities to re-conduct the test within a month under the guidelines of the PMDC.
On September 30, Dow University released the results statistics for the Medical and Dental College Admission Test (MDCAT). A total of 22,366 candidates from across Sindh passed the test, achieving a pass rate of 58.79%.
