JSMU MBBS Final Merit List 2026-27 for Karachi: Waiting List Registration on 11 and 12 November

We read all three JSMU notices on its admissions page on 11 November 2026: the final merit list posted on 6 November, the two seat allocation notices of the same date, and the waiting list notice dated 8 November. The list ranks 3,063 candidates from all districts of Karachi Division. Below is what each stage means for you, the aggregate around each cut, and exactly what to take to JSMU.

The waiting list registration is on 11 and 12 November only

Registration for the MBBS waiting list against self-finance and reciprocal seats in Karachi's public colleges runs on Wednesday 11 and Thursday 12 November 2026, 10 am to 3 pm. You go to the Office of Admissions, 3rd Floor, Sindh Medical College, JSMU, with a pay order made out to "Jinnah Sindh Medical University".

The notice is clear on one point. Paying and registering does not give you any right to a seat. It only puts you on the waiting list, subject to the eligibility rules.

How to register for the waiting list in 5 steps

Make the pay order at your bank first, write three details on its back, and take it to JSMU on either day before 3 pm. If you want both self-finance and reciprocal seats, you need two pay orders.

1. Decide the category: self-finance, reciprocal, or both.
2. Get a pay order from any bank in favour of Jinnah Sindh Medical University: Rs 25,000 for self-finance, Rs 20,000 for reciprocal.
3. On the back of each pay order, write your full name, your merit number from the final merit list, and the seat category.
4. Check the details twice. JSMU asks candidates to verify them before they submit.
5. Submit at the Office of Admissions, 3rd Floor, Sindh Medical College, on 11 or 12 November between 10 am and 3 pm.

Aggregate on the Karachi final merit list 2026-27

The top aggregate on the list is 96.81 and the last of the 3,063 candidates has 60.76. At merit number 469, the last position called on the first allocation day, the aggregate is about 88.29. At merit number 900 it is about 85.77.

The aggregate is built from three parts: matric or O Level carries 10%, intermediate or A Level 40%, and MDCAT 50%. We read the figures from the merit list PDF on 11 November. The PDF's text layer is slightly out of line in places, so treat each figure as "about".

These are positions on the list, not closing merit for a college. A seat at each college went by merit and choice, so a college's last admitted aggregate can differ from these cuts. How the three parts are weighted is explained in our guide to MDCAT aggregate and merit.

Seats were allocated on 7 and 8 November for merit numbers 1 to 900

JSMU called merit numbers 1 to 469 on Saturday 7 November and 470 to 900 on Sunday 8 November. Seats were allocated on a merit cum choice basis, which means the highest merit chooses first, for JSMU, Dow University (DUHS), Karachi Medical and Dental College (KMDC) and Shaheed Mohtarma Benazir Bhutto Medical College Lyari (SMBBMC).

Candidates had to bring original documents: their own and their father's CNIC, matric and intermediate mark sheets and certificates, their own domicile and PRC, and their father's domicile and PRC. One parent or guardian could come with them. Those same papers are worth keeping ready if a waiting list seat comes your way.

If you are not on the list or did not get a seat

You still have two routes this month. Private colleges in Sindh are taking applications through JSMU until 24 November, and the waiting list covers self-finance and reciprocal public seats. Check every option before the dates pass.
