Admissions Open for MBBS 2019-2020 (Last Date: 16th May)

Update 02/06/2019: I'd like to add that while most of us generally know these facts by the end of A Level/FSc, it should be stated that please memorize scientific data and facts that are used in calculations and questions. This includes values like specific heat capacity of water, the first 30 elements of the Periodic Table, the values of sin cos and tan for 30 45 60 90 etc., the gravitational constant, etc. Take a day towards the end to go through these because no data booklet is provided for the calculations nor will you be allowed to have a calculator. The calculations will be simple enough to be done without a calculator but you obviously need to know those values.

Greetings,

It's that time of the year again and so the process begins. First of all, here is the main MBBS admissions page:

https://www.aku.edu/admissions/mbbs/Pages/home.aspx

Over here, please download the Programme Information Booklet and go through it in detail. You can also download the Sample Test paper that will give you an overview of the format. You're going to have to apply by the "apply online" link towards the bottom of the main page (also found towards the right as the top link, "Online Application"). And of course, generally just familiarize yourself with everything.

If you have any questions, contact AKU at mbbs.query@aku.edu. They always helped me with my issues/queries.

Last year with the blog posts containing extensive resources for the entry test and the interview + the guide I personally wrote elaborating upon my own experience through the process and my advice/tips for future applicants + the several questions that I answered in the comments underneath said blog posts - I believe that more than sufficient material has been compiled to guide you through the process. Thus, I'm simply going to link you to my guide and the blog posts of last year as that should cover about everything.

However! Upon inspection of the Sample Test on their website as well as after going through the Programme Information Booklet, it seems that the English section of the AKU entry test has been removed entirely. Thus, any and all discussions surrounding that part can be ignored as you go through these resources.

The other thing I want to mention is that I might make another post or two containing newer advice from the Class of 2023, in particular about the interview, given that they wish to share that. Moreover, it is also possible that seniors/my classmates have tips/resources/interview experiences to share as well, so I'll either keep adding stuff as updates to this post, or I'll make newer posts as I deem fit. Hence, do keep visiting this blog and this post regularly. 

In addition to the above, go through the blog posts that were made back in 2015 and before that on this blog as well, for that also contains great advice that I personally followed.

And of course, feel free to comment below for any questions or email me at akuhelp@outlook.com, and I'll reply as soon as possible.

Best of luck! :)
