MDCAT Aggregate Formula 2026: Step-by-Step Calculation with Examples

Your MBBS aggregate is 10% of your Matric percentage plus 40% of your FSc percentage plus 50% of your MDCAT percentage. This is the 10/40/50 weighting shown in PMDC’s published admission regulations. Check the current admitting university prospectus for your category.

Aggregate (%) = 0.10 × Matric (%) + 0.40 × FSc (%) + 0.50 × MDCAT (%)

1. Matric percentage = marks obtained divided by total marks, times 100.
2. FSc percentage = marks obtained divided by total marks, times 100. Check your university prospectus for whether it uses both parts of FSc.
3. MDCAT percentage = your score out of 180, divided by 180, times 100.
4. Multiply each by its weight and add them.

• Matric: 1,050 out of 1,100 gives 95.45%.
• FSc: 1,000 out of 1,100 gives 90.91%.
• MDCAT: 162 out of 180 gives 90.00%.
• Aggregate = 9.545 + 36.364 + 45.000 = 90.91%.

• Matric: 950 out of 1,100 gives 86.36%.
• FSc: 900 out of 1,100 gives 81.82%.
• MDCAT: 99 out of 180 gives 55.00%.
• Aggregate = 8.636 + 32.727 + 27.500 = 68.86%.

This second candidate passes the MBBS minimum of 55% but is far below the 2025 closing merits of public Punjab colleges, which were above 93% in the table Punjab closing merit guide covers.

The 50% weight means each additional MDCAT mark is worth more than the same mark elsewhere. One extra question out of 180 adds about 0.28 aggregate points. That is why retaking the test can change your outcome more than any other action.

Some provinces add marks for certain categories, for example Hafiz-e-Quran candidates, and these rules have been the subject of court cases. Read the current prospectus because the number of bonus marks, who qualifies and the cap on them can change by year and province.

• Using FSc predicted or expected marks instead of final marks.
• Mixing up marks out of 1,100 and out of 1,200.
• Rounding too early. Keep full calculator precision during intermediate steps and round only the final aggregate.
• Assuming one province's formula applies everywhere. Verify with your testing body.
• Using last year's closing merit as a promise. It is a guide only.

Open the DIFF. MDCAT aggregate calculator and enter your actual obtained and total marks. Read the applicable weightings and compare the result with your current prospectus. Keep a copy of the calculation with your application records.
