Introduction of MCAT Test In Pakistan
The MCAT represents an attempt to evaluate the student’s knowledge and ability to solve problems in the areas of biology, chemistry, and physics, the student’s skill in analysis of paragraph, tabular material, graphs, etc., and the ability to write two first drafts compositions in correct English. Separate score will be reported for Verbal Reason, Physical Science, Writing Sample, and Biological Science.
It is expected that those taking the test will have the equivalent of one year of college study in each of the scientific areas: biology, general and/or inorganic chemistry, organic chemistry, and physics. Although advanced study in one or more of this discipline may give a better understanding of concepts, it is not indented that the questions will require knowledge of concepts not thought in basic courses.
The Medical College Admission Test (MCAT) is unlike any test you have ever written. Through a standardized yet unconventional question format, the MCAT tests your knowledge in physics, chemistry, biology, organic chemistry, verbal reasoning, and analytical writing. The MCAT is administered 23 times per year.
Candidates of Punjab Domicile, Federal Capital area, AJ & K, and Northern areas applying for admission to the First Year MBBS against open merit/Reserved seats (except those nominated by Economic Affair Division, Islamabad) are required to pass the Entry Test with a minimum score of 60% otherwise they will not be eligible for admission. The Entry Test will be valid for the same session only.
A mathematical background including one year of college mathematical should suffice for the science questions; calculus is not required. Indeed, it has been suggested that high school courses, which included the following, would represent adequate preparation in mathematics; two year of algebra; use of trigonometric functions; memorization of sine and cosine of 0o, 90o, and 180o; facility in use of metric and English units and conversion from one set of units to another (when conversion factors are given); experimental error; statistics to include the concepts of arithmetic mean, range, variability, and vector addition and subtractions.
It is our suggestion that you begin preparation by studying the review sections of this book. Areas that is particularly difficult for you may require some review of your college texts. When you are taking tests, try to pace yourself to allow completion of each section within the allowed time. (If it is necessary to omit some questions because of time limitation, you may wish to go back after you have scored the test and try to answer them without pressure of time limit.)
After taking your first practice test and correcting the answers, you should score your test as it will do as actual test. First count the correct number of answers in Verbal Reasoning, Physical Science, and Biological Science.
The number of correct answers is raw score and must then be converted into a 15-point scaled score approximately by the following tables. The approximation exists because raw score to scaled score table may vary form test to test due to slight difference in degree difficulty.
Although individual medical schools vary with respects to the score they require, a standard score of 11 or greater will probably considered to be quite competitive. A standard score of 7 or less would indicate an area requiring substantial preparation. Before taking the next practice test, you should concentrate on the areas of low scores.
The above given all information will able to explain you that what is MCAT and why this test is important to attempt. well i said that this test is not only important is sense of attempt but a candiadte must have also clear this test with good marks if he or she want to get admission in the top ranked medical colleges of Pakistan.
