Where SIMS ranks
In the final 2025 list, SIMS had the 3rd highest closing merit of the 17 Punjab public medical colleges (just above it: AIMC (94.45%); just below it: Nishtar Medical College (94.15%)). All 17 are in the MDCAT merit list.
What the gaps mean: one MDCAT mark is worth 0.28 aggregate points, so in 2025 SIMS closed less than one MDCAT mark below AIMC (94.45%) and less than one MDCAT mark above Nishtar Medical College (94.15%). 3 other colleges closed within 0.25 points of it, so small changes in the number of applicants can reorder them next year. Rank the colleges you want by preference, not by last year's merit: how to order UHS college preferences.
