The document outlines the official Medical and Dental Colleges Admission Test (MDCAT) 2025 Curriculum issued by the Pakistan Medical & Dental Council (PM&DC). It serves as a standardized guide for the entrance examination required for admission to medical and dental institutions across Pakistan. The preamble explains that the curriculum is designed to create a uniform assessment process for candidates from diverse educational backgrounds. It details the structure of the exam, which consists of 180 multiple-choice questions (MCQs) covering five subjects: Biology, Chemistry, Physics, English, and Logical Reasoning. The document provides a comprehensive subject-wise breakdown, listing specific units and learning outcomes that students must master, ranging from biological molecules and thermodynamics to fluid dynamics and critical thinking skills.

4. Easy Explanation
Think of this document as the "Official Cheat Sheet" or "Roadmap" for the big medical entrance exam in Pakistan (MDCAT).
It tells students exactly what to study and how the test will look.
The Scoreboard: It explains that Biology is the most important subject (almost half the test), followed by Chemistry and Physics.
The Plan: It lists every single chapter you need to know, from how cells work (Biology) to how atoms bond (Chemistry) to how planes fly (Physics).
The Twist: It also tests English and Logic puzzles to see if students can think critically and understand language, not just memorize facts.
Essentially, if a student studies every bullet point in this document, they are fully prepared for the exam.
