MDCAT 2026 Syllabus in Balochistan (BUMHS)

The MDCAT 2026 syllabus is national and identical across all provinces — it is set by PMDC, so the syllabus a Balochistan candidate prepares is exactly the same as in Punjab or KPK. There is no separate “Balochistan syllabus” in terms of content: BUMHS Quetta simply conducts the same PMDC test in the province. What is province-specific is the conducting body (BUMHS) and the provincial-quota / district reservations, not the syllabus.
