Hello everyone, First post here.
I am really worried about the percentage this year for mbbs local candidates. i heard from a friend that this year it could go to 84% simply because they are now accepting sat 2 scores from local students. Last year, I heard that it was 81%. Is this true? (But, then again, even last year they accepted students who gave sat 2, so....)
Btw, my percentage is around 84.5

Shalamar Medical and Dental College

As per the link above, Shalamar will accept SAT II for Foreign Students ONLY as per the policies and rules of PMDC. :)

That's my point. The people after the 120 seats are MCAT people. And their aggregate starts at 82-84%. It will end near 80-82% in Shalamar. The merit of Shalamar will stay constant or decrease.
Shalamar's merit will be around 82% UHS Aggregate for the Open Merit Seats. CMH has around 85-90 Open Merit Seats while Shalamar has around 130-135 Open Merit Seats. In addition to that, it's hard to forego the lucrative Financial Assistance option that Shalamar offers. CMH will have an INFLATED merit this year due to SAT II, which is a huge disappointment for the conventional Premedical students.

Moreover, the merit of Shalamar and CMH has now become incomparable due to the difference in their aggregate formula and, the scores accepted.

Shalamar's Aggregate Formula for Open Merit: 50% MCAT + 40% FSc/A levels + 10% Matric/O Levels
CMH's Aggregate Formula for Open Merit:
(For SAT II) 50% SAT II + 40% FSc/A Levels + 10% Matric/O Levels
(For MCAT) 37.5% MCAT + 12.5% CMH Test + 40% FSc/A Levels + 10% Matric/O Levels

In fact, CMH has two different merit formulas for two different classes.

exactly, now the mactians shouldn't apply for cmh, as there are no chances at all.. that is ridiculous.. and by the way i think that shalamar merit will be like 81 ..most probably.
Now you know how the A'Level students feel every year when they have to take the uhs mcat, which is purely fsc.
