Medical college admission tests on March 10

Examinations for admission to government and private medical colleges will be held on March 10, the head of the Directorate General of Medical Education (DGME) has said.

Dr Abul Bashar Md Jamal, director general of DGME, said the tests will continue from 10:00 am to 11:00 am on that day, according to bdnews24.com.

“We’ll publish the notice for the exams by Friday or Saturday. The number of seats and admission process will be the same as last year,” he said on Wednesday after the government published the results of the Higher Secondary Certificate or HSC tests.

Students with a combined GPA of 9 in the Secondary School Certificate or SSC and HSC examinations will be eligible to take the entrance tests.

The admission will be arranged centrally, Dr Abul Bashar said.

Bangladesh has 37 government medical colleges with 4,350 seats. The 72 private medical colleges in the country have 6,489 seats.

As many as 139,742 students took the admission tests last year, meaning there were 13 candidates for each seat.
