The Pakistan Medical and Dental Council (PMDC) has announced a new registration opportunity for MDCAT candidates. The online registration portal will reopen for five days.
According to a public notice issued by the council, the portal will remain open from August 17 to August 21, 2026. The move aims to help candidates who could not complete their registration earlier.
Applicants will need to pay the required fee to complete the registration process. Candidates should ensure their applications are submitted within the announced period.
The Medical and Dental Colleges Admission Test (MDCAT) is scheduled for September 20, 2026. The test is required for students seeking admission to medical and dental colleges.
MDCAT Registration Portal Reopens
The PMDC said the MDCAT Registration portal is being reopened to facilitate remaining candidates. Students who missed the earlier registration window can use this opportunity.
The council has advised candidates to complete all required steps before the deadline. Incomplete applications may not be accepted for the examination.
The PMDC also reserved the right to cancel applications that remain incomplete. Candidates should therefore review their information carefully before submitting their forms.
The five-day registration window provides additional time for eligible students. However, applicants are expected to complete the process within the specified dates.
MDCAT Test Date Announced
The MDCAT examination will be held on September 20, 2026. Students planning to appear in the test should complete their registration before the portal closes.
The examination is an important requirement for admission to medical and dental colleges. Candidates should also keep track of further instructions issued by the PMDC.
The council may provide additional information through its official communication channels. Students are advised to rely on official updates for any changes.
Earlier Registration Notices
The latest announcement follows two previous PMDC public notices. These notices were issued on July 20 and July 22.
The earlier notices provided information about the MDCAT Registration process. The latest reopening gives candidates another opportunity to complete their applications.
Students who have not yet registered should avoid waiting until the final day. Early submission can help prevent issues during the registration process.
Candidates should also make sure their personal and academic information is accurate. Any required documents or details should be submitted according to PMDC requirements.
Candidates Advised to Check Official Website
The PMDC has advised candidates to visit its official website for complete information. Applicants should review the latest instructions before completing their forms.
The council has emphasized the importance of completing the process correctly. Candidates must also pay the prescribed fee within the registration period.
