The MDCAT (Medical College Admission Test) is a mandatory entrance exam for admission to MBBS (Bachelor of Medicine, Bachelor of Surgery) and BDS (Bachelor of Dental Surgery) programs in Pakistan.
Therefore, medical fields requiring MDCAT are:
- Medicine: MBBS is the foundational degree for practicing medicine in Pakistan.
- Dentistry: BDS is the required qualification for becoming a dentist in the country.
While other medical fields like Pharmacy, Nursing, Physiotherapy, and Medical Lab Technology exist, they generally do not require MDCAT for admission in Pakistan. However, specific universities or programs might have their own entrance exams or criteria.
It's always advisable to check the admission requirements for your desired program and institution to ensure you meet all the necessary qualifications.
