About the NUMS Aggregate Calculator 2026 (Test Moved to 13 Sep, 50/40/10)

Free NUMS aggregate calculator for MBBS and BDS admission through the NUMS centralised cycle, on the weighting NUMS prints in its own centralised admissions advertisement: Entrance Test 50 percent, HSSC or F.Sc Pre-Medical or equivalent 40 percent, SSC or Matric or equivalent 10 percent.

That 50/40/10 split is worth stating carefully, because third party calculators disagree about it. Some publish a version that drops Matric entirely and splits 50/50 between the test and FSc. NUMS's advertisement lists Matric explicitly at 10 percent, so those calculators are wrong. The wording quoted here is from the session 2025-26 advertisement; NUMS had not published a 2026-27 merit formula at the time of review, so treat 50/40/10 as last cycle's official rule rather than a confirmed rule for this one.

The test has moved. NUMS MDCAT 2026 was advertised for Sunday 23 August 2026 and has been postponed to Sunday 13 September 2026 at 10:00 AM, following flooding across Pakistan. Note that the official advertisement PDF still circulates with the old August date on it, which is why several sites are still quoting it. Registration opened 18 May and closed at regular fee on 22 June, but the portal reopened and registration with late fee runs to Wednesday 19 August 2026 at 1600 hours. The fee is Rs 7,500 regular and Rs 8,500 late for centres in Pakistan, and Rs 40,000 or Rs 50,000 for the KSA centre.

If you are sitting both medical tests this year, the order matters: NUMS MDCAT falls on 13 September and the PMDC national MDCAT on 20 September, one week apart, and both were rescheduled from August. NUMS runs its own test and states that only NUMS MDCAT 2026 is valid for admission to its colleges. For foreign seats only, a valid MCAT from the USA or UCAT from the UK at 50 percent is accepted in its place.

The paper is 200 MCQs in two parts. Paper-I is 150 MCQs over 2 hours 45 minutes: Biology 55 questions at 37 percent weight, Chemistry 40 at 26.5, Physics 40 at 26.5 and English 15 at 10. Paper-II is a Psychological Test, 50 MCQs in 15 minutes carrying 5 percent. NUMS states there is no negative marking, so leaving a question blank is never better than guessing. The question mix is set at roughly 20 percent easy, 60 percent moderate and 20 percent hard, with 70 percent recall and 30 percent application in the science subjects.

Two thresholds sit outside the aggregate and disqualify people who only watch their merit percentage. You need a minimum 60 percent aggregate in HSSC Pre-Medical or IBCC equivalent to be eligible at all, and you must pass NUMS MDCAT itself at 55 percent for MBBS or 50 percent for BDS. A high aggregate does not rescue a NUMS MDCAT score below the pass mark.

On merit lists, NUMS behaves differently from most universities and better: it publishes college-wise selection lists as public PDFs on its site, so you can see them without logging in, while your own overall merit position is checked at mbbsmerit.numspak.edu.pk. In session 2025-26 the provisional merit list came on 24 December 2025, the first MBBS selection list on 1 January 2026, the first BDS list on 16 February 2026, and upgradation continued to a sixth list before being declared final. Six rounds means the bar keeps falling, so judge yourself against the last list rather than the first.

Colleges admitting through NUMS include Army Medical College Rawalpindi and its dental section, CMH Lahore, Multan, Kharian and Bahawalpur, HITEC Taxila, Karachi Institute of Medical Sciences, Quetta Institute of Medical Sciences, Wah Medical College, Bahria University in Karachi and Islamabad, Fazaia in Islamabad and Karachi, Foundation University Islamabad and NUST School of Health Sciences.

The calculator returns your Matric, FSc and NUMS percentages, each component's weighted contribution and the final aggregate, and works backwards from any target to the NUMS score you would need. Merit lists also separate open, reciprocal, self-finance and armed forces seats, so a single figure for a college means little without knowing which list it came from. Always confirm against numspak.edu.pk for the current cycle. All computation runs client-side and nothing is transmitted or stored.

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

Used by Army Medical College Rawalpindi, NUMS constituent / affiliated medical and dental colleges, CMH Lahore / Multan / Kharian / Bahawalpur, HITEC Taxila, Wah Medical College, Bahria University Medical / Dental College, Fazaia Medical College, Foundation University Medical College and NUST School of Health Sciences. Per PMDC notification, NUMS-applicants do not appear in the PMDC NMDCAT. NUMS MDCAT 2025 has 200 questions (150 academic + 50 psychological) over 3 hours with no negative marking per the NUMS schedule. Rules can change year to year, so always verify the current cycle's prospectus on numspak.edu.pk. Final merit lists also factor in seat type (open / reciprocal / self / armed forces) and reserved quotas outside this calculation.

NUMS MDCAT 2025 is 200 marks total (150 academic + 50 psychological), no negative marking per the NUMS schedule. Use 150 only if you have the academic-section raw score alone. Verify your cycle's prospectus.

Aggregate breakdown
Matric percentage90.91%
FSc percentage86.36%
NUMS MDCAT percentage80.00%
Matric weighted (×10%)9.09%
FSc weighted (×40%)34.55%
NUMS MDCAT weighted (×50%)40.00%
Final aggregate83.64%
Required NUMS MDCAT score estimator
requires NUMS MDCAT ≥ 186 / 200 (92.73%)

Given your Matric and FSc percentages, this is the minimum NUMS MDCAT score needed to hit the target aggregate. If the required percentage is 100% or above, your target is mathematically unreachable with the current Matric / FSc inputs.

On closing merit for NUMS colleges

This page shows no closing merit table. One used to sit here, listing Army Medical College, the CMH colleges and others to two decimal places for 2022, 2023 and 2024. It was removed in August 2026 because every row repeated the previous year exactly, which real closing merit does not do, and because most of its sources were other calculator sites rather than NUMS.

What is worth knowing instead: NUMS runs separate merit lists for open merit, reciprocal, self-finance and armed forces seats, so a single headline number for a college tells you little unless you know which list it came from. And merit falls with each successive selection list as candidates decline seats, so judge yourself against the final list rather than the first. Check merit on numspak.edu.pk directly.

Key insight
Every 10 NUMS MDCAT marks equals +2.50% aggregate (on the 200-mark test).
Math: NUMS MDCAT carries 50% of the aggregate across 200 MCQs, so each mark adds 0.25% and every 10 marks 2.5%. If you are working from the academic section alone (150 marks), the same 10-mark delta is worth 3.33%. To move your aggregate the same 2.5% through FSc instead you would need about 69 extra marks out of 1100, which is why the test decides far more than your board result does.
Watch the two pass marks separately from your aggregate. NUMS requires 55% in the MDCAT for MBBS and 50% for BDS, and a strong aggregate does not rescue a score below that line. 55% of 200 is 110 marks.

How to use the NUMS Aggregate Calculator 2026 (Test Moved to 13 Sep, 50/40/10)

  1. Enter your Matric (SSC) obtained marks and the total (1200 on Punjab boards, 1100 on the Federal Board). The calculator computes Matric percentage automatically.
  2. Enter your Inter / FSc Pre-Medical obtained marks and the total (1200 on Punjab boards, 1100 on the Federal Board). A-Level / O-Level students need to get IBCC equivalence first.
  3. Pick NUMS MDCAT marks entry mode: Raw score (default, correct for NUMS MDCAT 2025 which has no negative marking) OR Custom (with negative marking) where you enter correct and wrong attempts and the tool applies a -1 penalty. Custom mode is only for cycles or non-NUMS tests whose own information guide documents a wrong-answer penalty.
  4. Select NUMS MDCAT total marks: 200 for NUMS MDCAT 2025 (150 academic + 50 psychological, no negative marking per NUMS schedule) or 150 if you only have the academic-section raw score. Verify with your year's prospectus.
  5. Read the aggregate breakdown: Matric, FSc and NUMS percentages, each weighted contribution (×10%, ×40%, ×50%), and the final aggregate. Compare against the indicative cut-offs for Army Medical College, CMH Lahore, Bahria, Foundation and others surfaced below.
  6. Use the Required NUMS MDCAT score estimator to reverse-calculate: given your Matric and FSc, enter a target aggregate (e.g. 92% for Army Medical) and the tool tells you the minimum NUMS MDCAT score required.
