The Lahore High Court (LHC) dismissed a student’s plea after Pakistan Medical Commission (PMC) assured it that ‘no out of syllabus’ content has been issued for the students appearing in Medical and Dental College Admission Test (MDCAT) scheduled to be held on November 15. The petitioner claimed that the PMC issued a revised syllabus which was new and different from the UHS syllabus. He further argued that the common syllabus and table of specifications setting committee was formed and the Inter Board Committee of Chairmen, Islamabad (IBCC) was consulted for the purposes of the syllabus for the MDCAT Examination. Students will be given an objection form on the date of MDCAT examination to record any objection to any question they believe is outside the syllabus. The PMC will then consider these objections and if any question is found to be outside the identified syllabus it will be removed from the scoring.
