Closing merit at competitive public medical colleges has recently sat around 90–92%, and varies by province, college, and year. Treat published closing merit as history, not a threshold you can count on.
The formula
- Matric / SSC marks10%
- FSc / HSSC marks40%
- MDCAT score50%
Each component is converted to a percentage of its own total, multiplied by its weight, then added together.
Where that aggregate would have landed
Closing merit is the aggregate of the last candidate admitted in a given cycle. It is a record of what happened, not a pass mark. It moves every year with the number of applicants, the seats available, and any change in policy.

Check this before you rely on it
- •You must meet the minimum MDCAT qualifying score set for the cycle before merit is calculated.
- •Hafiz-e-Quran candidates may receive 20 bonus marks added to the HSSC total before the percentage is worked out. This calculator does not add them automatically — include them in your FSc marks if they apply to you.
- •Some provinces and private institutions exclude Matric and use a 50/50 FSc and test split. Check your target college’s policy.
