Overview
About Aga Khan University (Medical College)
Aga Khan University (AKU) in Karachi runs one of Pakistan's most prestigious and selective MBBS programmes. Admission requires a qualifying MDCAT score together with AKU's own assessment and interview process.
Because AKU is highly competitive, a strong MDCAT performance — led by Biology — is essential to advance. Disciplined, explanation-driven MCQ practice across Biology, Chemistry, Physics and English is the foundation of a competitive application.
