PGET vs CPSP / FCPS Induction Clarification

PGET does NOT replace CPSP enrollment or FCPS-I. Passing FCPS-I remains the prerequisite for entering FCPS-II residency. However, to secure a paid clinical residency slot in Punjab Government teaching hospitals, you must apply through CIP, where PGET constitutes 75% of your merit aggregate.

Punjab Test Centers & Arrival Logistics Advice

Multan CenterNishtar Medical University Examination Complex, Nishtar Road.

Optical Mark Recognition (OMR) Bubble Shading Best Practices

UHS evaluates answer sheets via high-speed optical scanners. To prevent unread responses:

  • Completely shade the intended circular bubble (A, B, C, D, or E) using a blue or black ballpoint pen.
  • Never use tick marks, crosses, or faint pencil strokes, as optical sensors ignore partial marks.
  • Do not select multiple options for the same question; multiple filled bubbles result in zero credit.
  • Keep your OMR sheet free from accidental ink smudges, creases, folds, or punctures.
