Question 1

What will be the difficulty level of National MDCAT 2023?

Accepted Answer

We can tell you that the difficulty level is going to increase this year as the content is mostly conceptual and they cannot just take books form a book so expect more conceptual content.

Question 2

Should we use prepare the exam from federal text books only?

Accepted Answer

you should only use the federal text book if you already have studied from the federal text books in routine and if not then consulting new books at this time is not a wise thing to do.

Question 3

What should be strategy to cover new topis?

Accepted Answer

From the exam’s point of view you have 3 areas to cover first ones are the ones that you have prepared and understand them well, second are the ones that you have read but do not understand them and third ones are that you neither have read nor do you understand them.

Question 4

What if we cover the new syllabus first and then revise the old syllabus?

Accepted Answer

This is not a good idea and I would not recommend this at all as this will not let you organize your efforts but instead would end up scattering the efforts. So my recommendation is that you need to do everything in a sequence and cover everything systematically on daily basis and focus on the previous syllabus to give tests and try to spend considerable time on the new topics while making sure that the previous topics are prepared as well.

Question 5

Concepts cannot be cleared you can just learn the lines by heart only.

Accepted Answer

Let me answer this, I understand that most of our curriculum books are not written concept based, although there are many concepts in the books but the way these books are written, you can not understand many things conceptually. So that is where teaching comes in and students rely on teachers to prepare for their studies. Alhamdulillah all the video lectures that have been delivered by TopGrade.Pk are highly conceptual. Many students think that taking lectures at this stage would waste their time, this is not true. A good lecture never wastes your time and lectures from TopGrade.Pk are the best. The way I have given lectures about various subjects is a testament to this as it would take minimum 9 hours to cover the subject for you and I have covered in three hours with letting you know about exam structure and possible pitfalls. So, you can always cover it by reading but the best way to clarify the concepts is through lectures.

Question 6

Has NUMS Exam scenario also changed?

Accepted Answer

NUMS entry test scenario has not changed at all and it will be conducted at 11th October as usual. NUMS exam has nothing to do with National MDCAT 2020 apart from sharing the same syllabus and same conducting authority.

Question 7

Federal books topics are not included in our books kindly shed some light upon this.

Accepted Answer

We don’t know what books you are using but according to our knowledge all the topics are almost similar in all the books. There is not much difference between those books and if there is any you can prepare the syllabus from TopGrade.Pk and this should cover the whole syllabus.

Question 8

Will National MDCAT be applicable to get admission in NUMS affiliated collages if we have passed the NUMS entrance exam too?

Accepted Answer

No! NUMS will get you admitted on the basis of its own test same goes with Agha Khan University both can get you admitted on the basis of their own entrance test but National MDCAT is completely different.

Question 9

How can we attempt the test according to the schedule?

Accepted Answer

If you are looking to attempt the test according to schedule than you need to explore the TopGrade.Pk and I will show you my self as well. You see, you will enter in to the question bank, from the question bank you would go in to any subject such as chemistry and you can create test in multiple ways such as incorrect questions, unseen or un answered questions. You can choose sub sections or topics and cerate test from that as well. You can choose how many questions you need in a test as well. You can attempt the answers and then read up on the explanations as well. Once you are done with the test it will show you the result. It is such a powerful program that would benefit you on immense scale and I can guarantee you that there is no other program exist in Pakistan that can make offer you National MDCAT 2020 preparation at the moment. At national level if you need to prepare for National MDCAT 2020 than TopGrade.Pk is the only agency. Taking any other option is putting yourself at risk.

Question 10

My marks are 910 can I get admission in private institute?

Accepted Answer

Yes, with 910 marks your admission is still possible. Make sure that you attempt both NUMS and National MDCAT 2020 exam and on those bases, you can definitely get admission. By the way P.M.C. has made it easier to attempt the private test.

Question 11

How Can I get the time table for NUMDCAT?

Accepted Answer

Question 12

Another question is that those who were already registered for AKU prep test in TG, do they need to re-register themselves?

Accepted Answer

Yes absolutely. Since our commitment with you guys was about the previous course and we had to make so much extra effort to calibrate the new course. You would need to re-register yourself with us.

Question 13

The forms that we sent for NTS to Islamabad, will the dissolve? And let us know how do we approach TopGrade.Pk. shall we go on website or wait for SMS?

Accepted Answer

Yes, they will dissolve. You will apply as new and you can either wait for the SMS or better yet you can visit our website and automatically you will get registered. If someone has not received the SMS then they can contact on our phone number and we will help you out with this.

Question 14

My marks in FSC are 600 can I get admission in private institutes.

Accepted Answer

I am so sorry but not in Pakistan. You will not be able to get admission in Pakistan.

Question 15

Can you please confirm if the UHS syllabus is changed for MDCAT or not?

Accepted Answer

As I have said earlier that it has changed drastically and basically Punjab syllabus is discarded and NUMS syllabus is very different form the Punjab syllabus.

Question 16

Since MDCAT has just been announced. Do we need to apply again?

Accepted Answer

Yes you will have to apply again.

Question 17

I have 910 marks in FSC and how many marks do I need to get admission in private medical college?

Accepted Answer

it all depends that which city you choose to do the studies. If you are aiming for Karachi then merit is a little low but in Lahore merit is always on a higher side. To be secure you need at least 90% score in National MDCAT.

Question 18

My marks are 960 from Federal board. Kindly clarify that if November MDCAT National 2020 test is related to the test which is to be held on 11th October? And are my marks good enough to get admission?

Accepted Answer

No! November test is not related to the October test in any way shape or form. Syllabus is same and conducting authority is same but that’s about it.  Both tests are not interdependent. Your marks are not bad but not too good either. You need 92% aggregate so you need to calculate how many marks you need in the exam to be successfully get admitted.

Question 19

What does common syllabus means? There are some topics that are in NUMS syllabus but not in Sindh syllabus.

Accepted Answer

Short and precise answer is that for you NUMS syllabus is the syllabus that you need to prepare. Consult TopGrade.Pk for the missing topics but you will have to prepare the new syllabus.

Question 20

How can we divide our study hours for effective time management. It is difficult to allocate time for 8 subjects 4 from 1st year and 4 from 2nd

Accepted Answer

We have devised a routine in the master planner that spans from 5 in the morning to 11 in the night. And the rest of the time is to sleep.   It is a complete routine where between 5-6 am you say your prayer then for half an hour you do your exercise and from 6-7 you start studies 7-8 am do your breakfast take bath give time to your family and 8-9 and 9-10am do your studies. Tea break between 10-11 am and then start your studies again between 11-1pm , from 1-2 pm say your prayer and then do your lunch sleep for an hour and then start your studies again till 6pm and then 6-7 pm give some time to any sports activity say your prayer have your dinner and you can customize it accordingly as well. Then start your spell no 5 that will continue till 11 in the night. In total it has 5 study spells some of which are short and some are long. You can fit the subjects accordingly in that time allocation. Distribute the study spells according to the difficulty of your subjects and create a routine. Make sure you only give the allocated time to the subjects and do not waste extra time to the same subject or you will end up ignoring many things. Make sure you are doing to the point preparation instead of scattered preparation you need to work smart not hard.

Question 21

I have 978 marks in FSC. Can I get admission in any public sector collage in Punjab?

Accepted Answer

Yes, 978 is good score and it is worth fighting. If you can secure 94% in entrance test than you can surely make it.

Question 22

NUMS and learning outcomes has different topics how do we prepare them?

Accepted Answer

It's not different topics its just that they have explained differently in the learning outcome as learning outcome is an extension of the given content. We have maintained the whole TopGrade account according to the learning outcome and syllabus so have confidence on that course.

Question 23

Sir I have not started the preparation yet and I would like to ask can I start preparation now? If I take the lectures now will it take more than a month to prepare?

Accepted Answer

You will need to have a deep analysis. You do not need to take all the lectures at all. Take NUMS syllabus and prioritize the topics as high medium and low and see the lectures for high priority topics and leave the medium and low priority ones and just take test and consult the book if necessary. You can not watch all the lectures in this short time span.

Question 24

How do I get the schedule and is this course going to be valid till the test?

Accepted Answer

Schedule will be provided by the TopGrade team so you need to contact them and yes, this course is going to be valid till the test if the test is delayed for a few weeks still this course will be valid till the test date.

Question 25

If someone has 850 marks in FSC then can they get admission in private?

Accepted Answer

Yes, if you can take better score in the entry test then in private you can have bright chances.

Question 26

Please clarify that since there is a huge difference in the values of Punjab and KPK books, which books we need to follow?

Accepted Answer

Answer is none of these books because in the exam they won’t ask you the values. Your exam is going to be conceptual. In case there will be any values than they are going to be the common ones. They will never ask about years or names of the scientists or anything like that. Even if they ever ask about the values than you would understand it any way. Just have a little faith.

Question 27

I have heard that questions form A and O level questions appear in the test as well how do we prepare them?

Accepted Answer

Do not worry about A or O level books worry about the topic instead, if your concept is clear than what ever the question is you will know the answer and if you do not know the topic well that it does not matter from where the question is coming from. Make sure that the topics that you understand need no lecture revision and the ones you are not clear about should be given proper attention.

Question 28

Next year I will attempt National MDCAT should I prepare from the federal books and since my domicile is from KPK, can I get admission in Punjab?

Accepted Answer

If you are planning to sit in next year MDCAT then study from your KPK text book and you can only come to Punjab on reciprocal seat which means that you still will have to get admission in your own province and then they can send you to Punjab and these are only a limited seat available.

Question 29

I got 988 in FSC can I get admission in any public sector institute and how do I tackle stress?

Accepted Answer

Your score is good enough to get admission in public sector medical university in Pakistan, and as far as stress management is concerned, this is a game of nerves and the best way to manage stress is to prepare yourself for the worst and fight for the best, suppress your negative thoughts, when you accept the worst outcome, you achieve calmness and when you are calm then you can put your best foot forward. If you have negative thoughts such as I have limited time and so on then just say that I only have today in my hand and focus on the day in hand leave the rest of the thoughts aside. You can eliminate lot of stress by just staying in the present day.

Question 30

The UHS syllabus that we have prepared should we retain it leave the excluded part out?

Accepted Answer

Retain it and the parts that have been excluded, leave that aside.

Question 31

What is the lowest merit of admission in medical collages in Lahore?

Accepted Answer

If we talk about the private collages than the lowest you can expect is around 88 and some collages take donations and even can give you admission on lower marks as well. Some colleges charge 2 to 3 million extra and give you admission but in general it is 88% for the admission.

Question 32

What is the lowest merit for Public sector medical colleges?

Accepted Answer

For public sector it is actually too high to be honest. For Lahore I would say it is close to 94% at least.

Question 33

How do I build confidence because when I attempt questions from question bank I do them correctly but I always anticipate that I have done them wrong even though I have done them correctly.

Accepted Answer

Confidence is directly related to practice. If you are practicing and you are doing it right, then it is confidence. Stay away from self-doubt and have self-belief. Have confidence in your self 85 right answers out of 100 is fine, do not stress over it. Your target should be that you need to attempt as many questions as possible, let me tell you a hard and fast rule. In next month or so attempt at least 800-1000 MCQs and learn from your mistakes. If you do that you will get admission and this is the whole secret. Just do this one thing and then if you score in FSC is 90% or above than you will get admission.

Question 34

Another student is asking that does the NUMS test comes from Punjab books?

Accepted Answer

No, NUMS test is taken from a common syllabus that comes from all the text books collectively. It’s the national curriculum that form all the text books. I have seen them all and there is not much difference between those books. So, you better stick to your own text books.

Question 35

What is the lowest merit of KPK and private sector?

Accepted Answer

It is usually remarkably low and around 75-80% you can get admissions in KPK and private sector.

Question 36

Do you suggest any past papers for preparation?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we strongly suggest the past papers for preparations and we at TopGrade.Pk are feeding NUMS last four years past papers into the system.

Question 37

Is NUMS and MDCAT syllabus is same?

Accepted Answer

Yes NUMS and National MDCAT 2020 syllabus is the same.

Question 38

Can I get admission in KPK medical collage in Peshawar or Abbotabad?

Accepted Answer

It mainly depends on your domicile, students from Federal have an opportunity to move to KPK so it all depends on your domicile.

Question 39

What is the lowest merit in KPK for MBBS?

Accepted Answer

There is a lot of inter college variation and it is not a set science and it determines based on many situations but a calculated guess is that it would be around 80 to 85% marks can get you admission.

Question 40

Do we have to cram all the lines of Bio, Chem, Physics and English?

Accepted Answer

Do not read any books in English, for English just TopGrade.Pk is more than enough. Does not matter if you are from Punjab, KPK or AJK you just need to see lectures, revision notes and MCQs from TopGrade and that should be enough. Try not to waste your time on any other source. You absolutely do not need to cram the lines you just attempt regular tests from TopGrade.Pk and learn from mistakes that’s all you need to do.

Question 41

What was the lowest merit in private sector in Punjab last year?

Accepted Answer

Punjab has its merit usually at higher side. Lowest is usually between 85% but I know lots of people  who get the admission processed by going out of the way such as donations and what not. I know people who had 70-75% marks and they somehow managed to secure the admission somewhere. Its all about navigating the target.

Question 42

I have Sindh domicile and FSC marks are 965 and there is a little confusion regarding Sindh MCAT that is finally canceled and National MDCAT will be conducted. While the date of MCAT is still showing on the NTS website.

Accepted Answer

As far as we know National MDCAT is applicable because if MCAT or provinces were still to take the entrance exam than there was not point giving the concept of National MDCAT. So in my opinion they will remove it from the website soon. In your best interest, you should focus on the National MDCAT and prepare for that. Logically speaking I do not think that only Sindh province can take a separate entry test. Other wise P.M.D.C would not recognize the collages that had not gone through the process. And if they are not recognized than those doctors would not be able to do the practice. There are a lot of places where conflict of interest is present but my final advice is that that’s fine if you would like to give test for MCAT but prepare yourself for National MDCAT at all costs.

Question 43

How many tests will be conducted on daily basis and is there any harm for such routine?

Accepted Answer

We are going to handover the whole content to you guys and it would be up to you that if you would like to prepare for 8/12 or 16 hours a day. You can create as many tests as you like we have given you free limit. You can watch videos , lectures, listen to the revision notes, its not a big deal. This is the beauty of TopGrade.Pk that we tailor make the preparation accordingly.

Question 44

Do we have to purchase new accounts for National MDCAT preparation or our existing account will be modified with new course?

Accepted Answer

You will need to purchase new one. National MDCAT course needed to be purchased.

Question 45

If Sindh is not following P.M.C than are there any chances that Punjab would do the same?

Accepted Answer

No, even with Sindh there is a good possibility that they will start following soon. With Punjab there are absolutely no chances what so ever.

Question 46

I need information about the fee structure and fee payment of new National MDCAT 2023.

Accepted Answer

You need go to the website and call on the helpline they would guide you about this.

Question 47

How many marks I need to get in MDCAT if I have 988 marks in FSC?

Accepted Answer

Now its 50% marks for Fsc, and 50% marks from MDCAT and you need at least 95 % aggregate now calculate yourself.

Question 48

Are we free to do the full-length papers other than those 5 FLPs mentioned?

Accepted Answer

Yes, feel free to attempt all the full length papers and I will try to increase the limit from 5 to 10 actually.

Question 49

Can you please give token promo?

Accepted Answer

promo automatically applies if you register before 12pm tomorrow and you would get the discount automatically. I have already instructed the team and they know that whoever is contacting us is due to the webinar.

Question 50

Unfortunately, I have not registered for the National MDCAT. Got my AKU test best.

Accepted Answer

you need to give the provincial test anyway because there is heavy competition in that field and you cannot rely on that since there is a chance that it might happen it might not. So provincial MDCAT is a must. After the notification from the government you will process your admission fee and everything.

Question 51

Can I take admission in KPK if my domicile is from KPK?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you certainly can.

Question 52

A student is asking that is it possible that national MDCAT date would be before November such as at the end of October?

Accepted Answer

No, at least 8th November and chances are it could be delayed at least a couple of months. It is clearly stated that it would be the second week of November and it is not possible to get it done before November. You better prepare for the worst and hope for the best. Keep 8th November in your mind and do the preparation, if it delays than it is even better for you and you can gain extra advantage.

Question 53

Can students from Punjab apply in private collages of other a different province?

Accepted Answer

Yes, not in all but to some extent they can. There are no extra ordinary limitations for private institutions.

Question 54

We have to purchase new accounts or our existing accounts will be updated for National MDCAT 2023?

Accepted Answer

For the time being since time was very limited, we have created new accounts and you can join the new accounts for the National MDCAT 2020 and you need to join the new course. We cannot commit with you to update the existing accounts as there are technical limitations in this process and it was impossible to update all the student accounts in such short span of time so we have created a whole new course. Let me discuss with my team that what kind of quick solution we can provide for such issue and then we can let you know. Students who have KPK domicile can apply for some limited seats in Punjab University.

Question 55

If the MDCAT difficulty level increases, would that mean that merit would decrease?

Accepted Answer

Well if the difficulty level increases than we need to keep in mind that due to the Covid situation, students have already got extra marks and over all marks of the students are better and on the higher side in FSC. So, that effect is going to be counter reacted. Means that if the merit was to increase further, this may not happen but we should not get ahead of time and the merit is going to be auto determined depending upon the relative performance of the students in the National MDCAT.
