A major scandal emerged ahead of the Medical and Dental College Admission Test (MDCAT) in Larkana, with reports of answer keys being leaked and sold to students.

According to 24NewsHD, the leaked answer keys were offered to candidates for sums ranging from Rs 1 million to Rs 1.2 million each. The incident came to light just hours before the scheduled exam, raising serious concerns about malpractice on a large scale.

Today’s test, which is under the supervision of the University of Health Sciences, includes 4,812 candidates, with 2,591 male and 2,211 female students participating.

The MDCAT is being held across 30 cities and 2 international centres, with Punjab hosting the exam in 12 cities across 26 centres. A total of 82,500 candidates are set to take part.

To ensure the fairness of the exam, mobile and internet services have been suspended around all centres within a 500-meter radius from 9:30 am to 1:30 pm. In Karachi, two main centres—NED University and Dow University Ojha Campus—are hosting 12,846 candidates.

The Sindh Home Department has taken strict measures to prevent cheating, imposing Section 144 around centres and banning mobile phones and electronic devices. The exam will run from 10 am to 1:30 pm.
