KARACHI, Sept 27: The PMA science and health council has decided to conduct its “10th Proficiency Evaluation Test” on Dec 16 for medical students.

Last date for the applications is Nov 30. This test is open for all the clinical students, who have completed at least one year of clinical training. Only students of the medical colleges recognized by the Pakistan Medical and Dental Council will be allowed to appear in the test. The candidates scoring highest marks will be given gold medals, annual subscription of reputed medical journals and other attractive prizes.

The primary aim of the test is to prepare the students for the challenges of the new century. This will not only produce a healthy competition among the students but will also give a fair idea of the standard of medical education in different colleges of the country.

The PMA centre organizes this test every year in all parts of country.
