Test
Pre-admission Test
In accordance with the policies adopted by the Federal as well as Provincial Government of Sindh all the eligible candidates applying under any category are now required to appear in the Pre-admission Test organized by the University. Candidates having secured less than 12% marks in the Pre-admission Test shall not be eligible for consideration of their names for the purpose of admission in this University.
The final merit list of the candidates for each district/category will be prepared by calculating the overall merit, based on the marks obtained in each of the following examinations, multiplying them with the respective weightage and adding the result to calculate the “Composite Percentage Number” (CPN) as described below:
|
Percentage of Marks in: |
Multiplying Weightage |
|
A. Secondary School Certificate |
0.10 |
|
B. Higher Secondary School Certificate |
0.40 |
|
C. Pre-admission Test |
0.50 |
For example, if a candidate has secured 70% marks in SSC, 65% marks in HSSC and 50% marks in pre-admission test; his/her CPN would be given by: CPN = 70 X 0.1 + 65 X 0.4 + 50 X 0.5 = 58%
*Adjusted marks means marks secured in HSSC examination plus additional marks if any, as defined in clause 8.10, minus marks to be deducted as defined in clause 8.11 of the prospectus.
Interviews
After the receipt of the results of Pre-admission Test a comprehensive merit list is prepared for each district/category
and a number of candidates are called for interview before the Admission Committee. The interviews are held at Mehran University, Jamshoro on the dates as announced in the newspapers and also on website. This number of candidates
called for interview are usually much higher than the seats available in a given district or category. The candidates are also required to bring their original certificates for verification particularly the following five certificates.
- Marks Sheet of SSC (Matriculation)
- Marks Sheet of HSSC Intermediate (Pre-Engg./General Science Group) (in case change of group from Pre-Medical to Pre-Engg. Marks sheet of Pre-medical Group).
- Domicile Certificate of candidate/guardian
- PRC on ‘C’ Form of candidate
- National Identity Card/B-form (as applicable).
If any document is short/missing his/her name will be kept in pending till the preparation of next list and then if the documents are still short his/her name shall be deleted from the merit list of the concerned District/Category without
notice except those who submit the application.
The names of those candidates, who failed to appear for the interview before the Admission Committee on the scheduled date and time shall be deleted from the merit list of the concerned district/category and they shall not be considered for the admission. Thus their absence from the interview shall amount to forfeiture of their right of admission. However, in case if any intimation is received their names shall be kept in pending till the preparation of Second list.
Additional Marks
The candidates, who have a certificate of Hafiz-e-Quran on printed form from a registered Maderasah and clear the test of Hifz taken in the University, are also considered to have additional 20 marks to be added to the marks of HSSC.
Deduction of Marks Due to Gap in Education
In case of a gap or repetition of HSSC/Diploma Examinations, the merit will be determined as below:
One percent of the aggregate marks will be deducted for each gap of one academic year after Matriculation examination from the total marks of the HSSC/Diploma examination or equivalent, for the purpose of determination of merit in each District/Category. This deduction is applicable whether the HSSC/Diploma examination had been repeated or the gap had occurred owing to any other reason.
