The MDCAT (Medical and Dental College Admission Test) aggregate is the overall score that is used to determine admission to medical or dental colleges. The aggregate is calculated based on the following factors:
- MDCAT score: The MDCAT score carries the most weightage in the aggregate calculation, usually accounting for 50-70% of the total aggregate.
- FSc or equivalent score: The marks obtained in the FSc (or equivalent) pre-medical examination are also factored into the aggregate calculation, with a weightage of 30-50%.
- Matric or equivalent score: The marks obtained in the Matric (or equivalent) examination may also be considered in some cases, with a weightage of 5-10%.
- Additional factors: Some medical or dental colleges may also consider additional factors such as aptitude tests, interviews, and extracurricular activities when calculating the aggregate.
The exact weightage and formula for calculating the aggregate may vary depending on the policies of the relevant authorities and colleges. It’s important to check the admission requirements and policies of the colleges you are interested in to determine the weightage and factors that will be used to calculate the aggregate.
