Medical and Dental College Admission Test (MDCAT) across Pakistan, including in Karachi, has faced incidents of malpractice, resulting in six students who were stopped from entering NED University.
The university administration stopped several students from entering the test venue, sparking outrage among parents and students.
Among those barred was a student who arrived to take the test despite being involved in a traffic accident.
Despite her injuries and pleas, the administration did not allow her to sit for the exam, leading to an emotional scene at the gates as she broke down in tears.
Other students, also denied entry, were seen crying after NED University management closed the gates ahead of schedule, according to parents.
In a separate incident, a female candidate reportedly attempted to enter the exam hall through a restricted area reserved for girls after being refused entry at the main gate.
Parents and students expressed frustration over the mismanagement, with many questioning the fairness of the process and the early gate closures.
