Default How to study for shifa entry test

Yes, I am appearing for the 2011 entry test, and I need to know from someone who took the exam, what do I expect?
And what books do I study from?
Please Private Message me if possible, or write here, please give DETAILS, I opened a fresh thread, because no one seems to reply anywhere and they pretty much die off.
I am a foreigner, so if there are any sites where I can obtain FSC books, with the exact title, please let me know asap!
Thanks for you help

Default How to Study for Shifa College Entry Test

Hello shahila, I am final year now, went through the test in year 2006. I think things are changed now. So I would better ask people who appeared in shifa entrance test exam last year to give you some tips.

Default books for preparation

hi shahila
you can simply buy the FSC books from the market for that purpose because there is no proper alternate for these books
max. number of questions will be from the FSC text books and only few will be from outside the books
preparing for ethical ,moral ,reasoning,maths and aptitude questions you can get the idea & help about these questions only from the internet like all of us
if you talk about the iqbaliat portion ,you can read it out from the notes provided along with the prospectus & adm. form from shifa college

Default how to study for shifa entry test

I met a guy, ali younus from class of 2015 at shifa college of medicine. He secured 61% marks in shifa's entry test. I asked the same question from him and here is what he said.

Shifa entry test is more about concept. I did A levels and read SAT II books. Didnt read anything else. And read that handout for aptitude test.

I dont think there are sites from where you can download Fsc books. For Shifa Entry Test, if someone has done Fsc, he/she better read Fsc books. But if someone did A-levels he/she better read a levels books. so shahila if you are doing A-levels better read those books plus SAT II.
Also read the sample paper for the entry test because there is also repetition of mcqs from shifa entry test sample paper.
For iqbaliyat you will get handout with the prospectus.

I don't want to underestimate the difficulty of the test, people told me to just read the SAT II books for AKU test, and it was so hard!

Who told you to read SAT II for Agha khan??? I dont think agha khan test is all about SAT II. And i am not asking you to read only SAT II books. I am asking you to read your text books plus SAT II. Thats what people usually do. Anyways
So you are doing high school, if you still have enough time you can have a look at FSc or A levels books so atleast you have an idea. apart from those also go through SAT II books.
