Closing merit history
Aggregate percentage for the last candidate admitted in each year. Public colleges report open-merit; private colleges report the self-finance pool.
What the merit trend shows
The recorded MBBS closing aggregates belong to the self-finance quota. The value moved from 81.20% in 2024 to 84.30% in 2025. Both rows track the paid seat pool of the college.
Our dataset records an estimated annual MBBS fee of PKR 1,400,000. Private college fees in Punjab sit in the PKR 1.2M to 2.4M band.
UHS builds the aggregate from three parts: 10% SSC, 40% HSSC and 50% MDCAT. 1 Compare sessions with care. The MDCAT scale moved from 210 marks in 2021 to 200 marks in 2022 and to 180 marks in 2025. So one percentage does not equal one raw score in every row. 6
