The results of the admission test of MBBS and Bachelor of Dental Surgery (BDS) were published today with a pass rate of 58.4 percent.

A total of 48,484 students passed the exam held on September 18, said Parikshit Chowdhury, public relations officer of the ministry.

The state minister for health Zahid Malik declared the result formally at the health department around 11:30am.

Individual candidates can check their results with their admission roll number through the Directorate General of Health Services website. 

A writ petition was filed with the High Court today seeking its directives on the government to cancel the admission test of MBBS and BDS today as there have been allegations of question paper leakage.

Students seeking admission into public medical colleges have been demonstrating in different parts of the country Saturday demanding cancellation of the admission test. They alleged that the questions of the test were leaked the night before and circulated on social networking sites.
