How to use this MDCAT aggregate calculator

  1. Enter your SSC (Matric) marks and total, then your HSSC (F.Sc. Pre-Medical) marks and total.
  2. Enter your MDCAT marks. The MDCAT total starts at 180, and the next section says why.

  4. Under MDCAT marks you need, enter the aggregate you are aiming for.

MDCAT aggregate formula for session 2025-26

UHS's advertisement for session 2025-26 (page 2) weights the three results 10%, 40% and 50%. It covers public MBBS and BDS colleges in Punjab, under the Punjab admission policy notified on 22 October 2025.

Aggregate = 10% of SSC % + 40% of HSSC % + 50% of MDCAT %

Each percentage is your marks ÷ total × 100.

PM&DC's MDCAT-2026 notice (page 2) says the test has 180 MCQs and no negative marking. It does not say how many marks each MCQ carries, so a total of 180 assumes 1 mark per MCQ. If your result shows another total, change the MDCAT total.

Worked example: an 89.35% aggregate

This example comes from GradeCat's research on the UHS formula.

ResultMarksPercentageWeightAdds
SSC1020/110092.73%10%9.27
HSSC980/110089.09%40%35.64
MDCAT160/18088.89%50%44.44
Aggregate89.35

9.27 + 35.64 + 44.44 = 89.35%. To 4 decimals it is 89.3535%, because the tool keeps every fraction exact until the end.

Eligibility for session 2025-26

Page 1 of the same advertisement sets three minimums:

  • MBBS: MDCAT at least 55%, which is 99 out of 180.
  • BDS: MDCAT at least 50%, which is 90 out of 180.
  • HSSC Pre-Medical, or an IBCC-recognised equivalent, at least 60%, which is 660 out of 1100.

For this session UHS accepted MDCAT 2023, 2024 or 2025. The tool checks each minimum on your exact percentage, so 98 out of 180 (54.44%) misses the MBBS minimum.

MDCAT marks you need for a target aggregate

Enter the aggregate you are aiming for, and the tool works back from the formula: the target, minus what your SSC and HSSC add, divided by MDCAT's 50%. Marks round up to a whole mark, because one mark short misses the target.

With the SSC and HSSC marks above, an aggregate of 85% needs at least 145 out of 180 in MDCAT (80.56%). A 95% aggregate is out of reach for this student: even 180 out of 180 gives 94.91%.

Closing merit changes every year, so GradeCat shows no merit lists. Set your own target.

What is not verified yet

  • Other provinces. Sindh, KP, Balochistan and NUMS use their own admission rules. GradeCat has not verified them, so there is no preset for them.
  • Session 2026-27. The UHS policy for 2026-27 was not available to check. The MDCAT years accepted change from session to session.
  • Marks per MCQ. PM&DC gives the number of MCQs, not the marks each carries.
  • Rounding. UHS does not say how it rounds aggregates in its merit lists, so the tool shows 2 and 4 decimals.

MDCAT aggregate FAQ

What is the MDCAT aggregate formula?

For public MBBS and BDS colleges in Punjab in session 2025-26: 10% of your SSC percentage, plus 40% of your HSSC percentage, plus 50% of your MDCAT percentage.

How many marks is MDCAT out of?

MDCAT-2026 has 180 MCQs. PM&DC does not state the marks per MCQ, so the tool assumes 1 mark each, a total of 180. Change the total if your result shows another one.

Does the same aggregate count for BDS?

Yes. UHS uses one formula for MBBS and BDS. Only the MDCAT minimum differs: 55% for MBBS and 50% for BDS.

Can I use this for Sindh, KP or NUMS?

Not yet. Their admission rules have not been verified, so there is no preset for them.

Is this the 2026 MDCAT aggregate formula?

It is the UHS formula for session 2025-26, the latest one UHS had advertised when GradeCat checked on 4 November 2026. PM&DC set MDCAT-2026 for 16 August 2026. UHS sets its rules for each session, so check its next advertisement.

Why does my aggregate show 4 decimals?

The tool keeps each part exact, so 89.35% is 89.3535% before rounding. UHS does not say how it rounds, so the tool shows both.
