From the PMDC website at : Regulations!

Minimum age limit fixed by the Council of 17 years and maximum age limit of 35 years for getting admission in MBBS/BDS course were reconsidered by the Council. The Council has decided that there should not be minimum or maximum age limit for admission in MBBS/BDS class.

HURRRRAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!! I am so happy...even though this rule does not directly apply to me, but THIS IS ANOTHER GREAT STEP FOR FREEDOM OF EDUCATION IN PAKISTAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! CONGRATULATIONS TO ALL OLD PEOPLE!! All those SUCKERS who complain about the system of Pakistan must read this news...WE ARE SPREADING OUR HORIZO AND MOVING AHEAD.....PAKISTAN ZINDABAD!

Good stuff. They need to take more action that stresses the importance of availability of education as well as importance. Step in the right direction.

yah I think it was a stupid rule to begin with because there is LITERALLY no diversity in medical schools of pakistan. All the students have the exact same education, have the same interests, come from the same part of the country mostly, same economic upbringing as a whole.

So the end result are boring doctors, some becoming corupt (performing illegal abortions, kidney transplants, running their own labs/pharmacy to make more money) and they are just DULL. They really need to find a way to broaden the student body besides mullahs, a few foreigners, tribals and the merited. Age limit abolishment is a step in the right way, although a baby step!

Has anyone info regarding the oldest students accepted at reputable med schools in Pakistan since the abolition of upper age limits and what their experiences might be?

There is technically NO UPPER AGE LIMIT - but you need to have completed matric within two years of applying - go figure!

SSC/FSc within 2 years - correct - but that's if you apply as a non-pakistani - I'm not sure about Pakistani nationals.Why not download the document yourself. Follow the link that says "For admission 2011-2012 session...." on the pmdc.org.pk website.
