DUHS merit calculator
The merit formula for Sindh (Karachi and Dow-affiliated seats) is the PMDC one: MDCAT 50%, HSSC 40%, Matric 10%. Enter your marks below for the aggregate. The table carries the board's recorded closing aggregates, with the published list linked where one was filed.
The DUHS aggregate
Sindh’s admission runs through the admitting universities: DUHS for Karachi and Dow-affiliated seats, with JSMU and LUMHS publishing their own district and university lists.
The formula is the PMDC one, same as every board: MDCAT 50%, HSSC (FSc Pre-Medical) 40%, Matric 10%. Convert each score to a percentage first, then apply the weights.
Academic Credentials
PMDC 10 : 40 : 50Official PMDC format: the paper carries one mark per question, so your raw score is out of 180. Your MDCAT percentage is that score divided by 180, which contributes 50% to your merit. Treat the figure as a planning estimate, not a seat guarantee.
The calculator runs in your browser and does not save your marks. Check the current prospectus of the college you are applying to before you rely on a closing mark.

What this estimate does not tell you
A higher aggregate does not guarantee a seat. The closing line moves with the year, the province, the college and the quota. Check the admitting university's latest merit list.

How the DUHS lists move
Provisional and final lists publish per district and per university.
The four steps are the same everywhere: provisional order of merit, final order of merit after objections, college-wise selection lists, then upgradation lists that fill declined seats. A seat you decline does not disappear. It moves down the same merit order, which is why later lists close lower.
Questions about DUHS merit
Is the merit formula different for each board?
No. The PM&DC 2026 regulations fix one aggregate everywhere: MDCAT 50%, HSSC 40%, Matric 10%, in public and private colleges alike. What differs by board is the closing aggregate you must beat.
What closing aggregate do I need?
Use the table on this page as the reference, and read the final selection list for a college, not its first. Later lists close lower: Punjab ran thirteen in 2025-26, and the last one closed lower than the first.
Where is the merit list itself published?
On the admitting body’s own portal, linked above. The merit list page on this site tracks which lists are out, body by body, with the dates each one is due.
Why are some closing aggregates marked recorded?
A figure marked recorded was transcribed into the directory without a filed citation. A figure with a link was read from the published list and checked against the dataset. The directory states the difference instead of hiding it.
