CalcuPK

NUMS aggregate calculator

NUMS applies 10% Matric, 40% FSc and 50% entry test, but the test is its own NUMS MDCAT, not the national one. It is marked out of 200 — Paper I is 150 academic MCQs and Paper II is 50 psychological questions — with no negative marking. NUMS admissions apply only to Armed Forces–administered medical and dental colleges.

10% Matric + 40% FSc + 50% NUMS MDCAT

Matric / SSC (10%)

Total marks obtained in SSC / O-Level equivalence.

FSc / HSSC (Pre-Medical) (40%)

Total marks obtained in HSSC / A-Level equivalence. Grace marks are not counted.

NUMS MDCAT (entrance test) (50%)

NUMS runs its own test: Paper-I 150 academic MCQs + Paper-II 50 psychological = 200 total, no negative marking.

How the NUMS aggregate is calculated

An admission aggregate converts each of your results into a percentage, multiplies it by the weight the institution assigns to it, and adds the weighted figures together. The weights are set by the admitting authority and are not negotiable — they are what makes one university's merit list rank candidates differently from another's.

National University of Medical Sciences (NUMS) uses 10% Matric + 40% FSc + 50% NUMS MDCAT for MBBS / BDS (2025–26). The calculator applies exactly those weights, shows the arithmetic for every component, and checks any hard eligibility floors separately — because a candidate can post a competitive aggregate and still be rejected for missing a minimum.

Steps the calculator follows

  • Normalise each component to a percentage: marks obtained ÷ total marks.
  • Multiply that percentage by the component's weight.
  • Add every weighted contribution together.
  • Compare each gated component against its eligibility floor.

Rules and exceptions that apply

  • Test year vs admission session: NUMS MDCAT 2026 is the entry test used for the session 2026–27 intake, but the 10/40/50 weighting shown here is confirmed only for session 2025–26. Treat the formula as provisional for 2026–27 until NUMS publishes its new centralized admission policy.
  • Passing the NUMS MDCAT does NOT mean admission. The pass mark is an eligibility gate; admission depends on your aggregate rank against every other applicant and the seats available in your route.
  • NUMS conducts its OWN test, branded 'NUMS MDCAT' — it is not the PMDC National MDCAT. PMDC treats it as at par, but valid only for admission to Armed Forces–administered colleges.
  • IMPORTANT — unresolved: the NUMS advertisement states 'Entrance Test 50%' and the Table of Specifications gives a grand total of 200 marks (150 academic + 50 psychological), but neither official document states whether the aggregate uses the /200 grand total or only the /150 academic paper. CalcuPK defaults to /200 and leaves the total editable. Confirm with NUMS before relying on the figure.
  • The NUMS MDCAT is held on a different date from the national MDCAT.

Eligibility floors (checked separately from merit)

  • HSSC minimum 60% — NUMS applies the PMDC eligibility floor of 60% in HSSC / FSc (Pre-Medical).
  • NUMS MDCAT pass mark 55% (MBBS) — The NUMS MDCAT pass mark is 55% for MBBS (Medical) and 50% for BDS (Dental).

Why your actual result may differ

Totals vary between boards, equivalence certificates change the marks used, and admission policies are revised between cycles. Quotas, category seats, campus choice and the strength of a given year's applicant pool all affect whether an aggregate is enough. This calculator produces your score under the published formula — it does not predict admission.

Applying to more than one university? The aggregate calculator for Pakistani universities puts every published formula side by side, so you can see how the same marks rank you at NUMS and everywhere else.

NUMS worked examples

These are computed by the same engine that powers the calculator above, so they can never drift out of step with it.

Ordinary case

A typical applicant

Strong board results with a mid-range entry-test score — the most common shape of application.

ComponentCalculationPoints
Matric / SSC935 ÷ 1100 × 10% = 8.58.500
FSc / HSSC (Pre-Medical)880 ÷ 1100 × 40% = 3232.000
NUMS MDCAT (entrance test)140 ÷ 200 × 50% = 3535.000
Aggregate75.5000%

Eligible. Clears every eligibility gate: HSSC minimum 60%; NUMS MDCAT pass mark 55% (MBBS).

Boundary case

Exactly on the eligibility floor

Every gated component sits precisely on its minimum. This is the case where rounding decides whether an application is accepted at all.

ComponentCalculationPoints
Matric / SSC660 ÷ 1100 × 10% = 66.000
FSc / HSSC (Pre-Medical)660 ÷ 1100 × 40% = 2424.000
NUMS MDCAT (entrance test)110 ÷ 200 × 50% = 27.527.500
Aggregate57.5000%

Eligible. Clears every eligibility gate: HSSC minimum 60%; NUMS MDCAT pass mark 55% (MBBS).

Exception case

Strong marks, still ineligible

Excellent board results but an entry-test score just under the pass mark. The aggregate looks competitive and the application still fails, which is why eligibility is checked separately from merit.

ComponentCalculationPoints
Matric / SSC1012 ÷ 1100 × 10% = 9.29.200
FSc / HSSC (Pre-Medical)1012 ÷ 1100 × 40% = 36.836.800
NUMS MDCAT (entrance test)104 ÷ 200 × 50% = 2626.000
Aggregate72.0000%

Not eligible. The NUMS MDCAT pass mark is 55% for MBBS (Medical) and 50% for BDS (Dental).

NUMS admission process and documents

A typical route to admission. Exact steps, documents and dates are set by the institution each cycle — always confirm on the official portal.

Documents you usually need

  • Matric / SSC certificate and detailed marks certificate
  • Intermediate / HSSC certificate and detailed marks certificate (Part-I where required)
  • Entry-test result card
  • CNIC or B-Form
  • Domicile certificate
  • Recent passport-size photographs
  • IBCC equivalence certificate for O/A-Level candidates

Eligibility beyond the formula

  • Meet the minimum marks and subject combination for your programme before merit is considered.
  • Entry-test scores are usually valid for a limited period — check the current cycle's rule.

Timeline. Application, test and merit-list dates are set each admission cycle by the university. Confirm the current schedule on the official portal — last year's dates do not carry over.

NUMS entry test marks needed for the aggregate you want

Your Matric and Intermediate marks are already fixed — the entry test is the only part you can still change. Find the row closest to your academic percentage, then read across to the aggregate you are aiming for. Figures are marks out of 200, computed from 10% Matric + 40% FSc + 50% NUMS MDCAT, and assume the same percentage in Matric and Intermediate.

“Not reachable” means that even full marks on the test would not lift your aggregate to that target, because the academic part of the formula caps it. That is arithmetic, not a prediction: reaching an aggregate is necessary for admission, never sufficient, since the closing merit depends on who else applies.

Common mistakes in the NUMS aggregate

  • Entering a national MDCAT score out of 180 into the NUMS calculator, which expects 200.
  • Assuming a NUMS score can be used for provincial public-sector medical admissions.
  • Treating the /200 denominator as settled — NUMS has not published which total feeds the aggregate.
  • Using FSc Part-I marks — NUMS uses your full HSSC aggregate for the academic component.

NUMS admissions glossary

Admission aggregate
A single percentage that combines your Matric, Intermediate and entry-test marks using the weights a university publishes. It is used to rank applicants on a merit list.
Closing merit
The aggregate of the last candidate admitted to a programme in a given year. It is set by supply and demand each cycle and is not a fixed pass mark.
Weightage
The share of the admission aggregate assigned to a component, such as 50% to the entry test. Weightages differ sharply between universities.

Frequently asked questions

No. NUMS conducts its own test, officially branded NUMS MDCAT, on a different date and with a different structure: 200 marks in total against the national MDCAT's 180. PMDC treats it as at par with the national MDCAT, but a NUMS score is only valid for admission to Armed Forces–administered colleges.
