Sharif Medical and Dental College: closing merit
This record holds no closing aggregate for Sharif Medical and Dental College. No one has copied a published list into it, and it does not mean the college admits below the pass mark.
This is history, not a forecast. A closing aggregate moves with the number of seats and the number of applicants, so the next line is not your line. The 2026-09-21 filing carries what each admitting body published.
For the 2026-27 cycle, the merit list page records which list each admitting body has published and the date it checked it. The result comes from UHS merit lists.
To find where you stand against these numbers, use the aggregate calculator. It runs Matric, FSc and MDCAT marks through the 10 / 40 / 50 formula. The formula guide explains the tie-breakers after the fourth decimal. Every college in Punjab sits on the same columns, so you can compare this college with its neighbours in one view.
