PMDC Wins Rare Cross-Party Praise for Transparent and Successful MDCAT 2025<\/strong><\/p>\n

By Nadeem Tanoli<\/strong><\/p>\n

Islamabad:<\/strong> The Pakistan Medical and Dental Council (PMDC) received rare and unanimous praise from lawmakers, university vice-chancellors, and committee members for the transparent and well-organized conduct of MDCAT 2025<\/strong>, marking a major turnaround from the controversies and paper leaks that had marred previous years.<\/p>\n

During the meeting of the Standing Committee on National Health Services, Regulations and Coordination<\/strong>, chaired by Dr. Mahesh Kumar Malani<\/strong>, members from all provinces applauded PMDC for restoring credibility and public trust in one of the country\u2019s most important national examinations.<\/p>\n

Dr. Malani opened the session by congratulating the PMDC, provincial governments, and the Ministry of Health, saying, \u201cWe wanted to congratulate all the provinces, the ministry, and the PMDC. This was a very good thing for our entire country, and we should highlight it.\u201d<\/p>\n

Lawmakers from Sindh, Punjab, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, and Balochistan<\/strong> echoed the chairman\u2019s sentiments. One MNA remarked, \u201cFirst of all, congratulations that this time you planned very well and have wiped people\u2019s tears. The complaints from students this year were almost non-existent.\u201d Another female member added, \u201cI appreciate the PMDC and their entire team that this time you covered up the previous complaints and saved new ones from happening.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Vice-Chancellors of Sukkur IBA University<\/strong> and the University of Health Sciences (UHS)<\/strong> also thanked PMDC for its exceptional coordination and support. \u201cTo be very honest, we want to thank PMDC for the question bank we received this time,\u201d said the UHS representative. \u201cThe cooperation and quality were immaculate. For that, I want to congratulate the PMDC.\u201d<\/p>\n

Committee members also praised PMDC\u2019s decision to create separate question papers for each province<\/strong>, calling it \u201can excellent idea\u201d that ensured fairness and protected the integrity of the exam. According to PMDC officials, the step was introduced to safeguard the process so that a leak in one province would not affect the entire country.<\/p>\n

The committee further appreciated the creation of a high-quality national question bank<\/strong>, which was described as a major factor behind the low number of complaints about out-of-syllabus or incorrect questions. Lawmakers agreed that these reforms represented a significant milestone in rebuilding trust between students, institutions, and the examination system.<\/p>\n

Members concluded that the MDCAT 2025<\/strong> reflected PMDC\u2019s renewed commitment to transparency, planning, and professional management, setting a new benchmark for medical examinations in Pakistan.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
