Good question. I would think that a score of 2000+ would be within competitive range.

Sallam,
I am also interested in applying there but i got email yesterday from them that they see SAT 11 as well and they require 2 science sub SAT score minimum 700. I am not sure if DIMC is reliable. Can some body help me? Is there anyone who is in DIMC and can pass some information about the area and safety as well?

They require minimum of 1500 SAT score out of 2400

Does Dow need SAT II 's as a reqiurement for entry, if yes, then which ones. Also which are the Private Medical colleges in Pak, other than govt colleges?

You really need to read some of the other threads on this forum if you're still asking questions like that.

Hi Madiha,

As DIMC is a part of DMC and recognised by the PMDC, so reliability is not an issue at all. As far as security is concerned, it is built at quite a safe place, and also the hostels are within the campus area. When are you planning to apply for it?

Hey Plasma,

I am not quite sure but I guess there were around 35-40 students in first batch, but the numbers will increase in the future as that was their first year. I think you should apply for it if you can afford to live that far from your family!!

and one more thing, DIMC is only for foreign students and not for local students, u will find only foreigners there, this is the actual reason they have named it as dow international medical college

Hey! I was wondering...does anyone here go to DIMC?
im graduating high school next month and planning on applying there for nov. admission..
i called DIMC a couple of times but u know how everything works in pak i couldnt get thru to anyone and get them to give me an answer.
okay so my question:
i have taken the SAT three times so like would they count the most recent one or the best one or would they take the best score out of all three areas like writing, math and critical reading and add that up?
someone PLEASE PLEASE answer this question for me!!!
i really really need to know.
thannks!!
oh yeah another question... is it safe to go to med school in pak these days? my parents keep changing their mind cuz of everything thats been going on lately. let me know by ur experiences.
thanks a lot guys

Hey saima, I'm also planning on applying to various med schools in pakistan and am going through the exact same trouble you are. To answer your question, I'm pretty sure DIMC, as well as many other schools, will accept EITHER your most recent score, or your highest score overall. i haven't heard of very many schools taking the best of all your math or writing scores by adding them up to get your total score. If that were the case, then most people wouldn't be facing problems concerning the SAT I and its competitiveness. If an applicant had taken it more than once, then theyre bound to improve with each test taken. As you said, you've taken it a total of three times, so im guessing you've got a pretty solid score, that is, if you improved with each test.

saima1127 · 04-22-2008, 04:37 PM

thanks nausha. that was helpful!
i have another question i forgot about earlier...hehe
what scores do people usually make on their SAT to get into DIMC? i know the minimum is 1500 and thats really low so i was wondering if the scores were around it or a lot higher like closer to 2000- 2400. i asked the adminstration at dimc and they said that it depends on the kids that apply that year but im sure they have an average or something. does anyone know?
