DETERMINATION OF MERIT
1. EXAMINATIONS CONSIDERED FOR MERIT PURPOSE
For admission to all the bachelor’s degree Courses and determination of merit the following examinations are considered:
a) Intermediate examination or equivalent with the following combinations: Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry; OR
Mathematics, Physics, Computer Science; OR Mathematics, Physics, Statistics; OR Physics, Chemistry, Biology
b) Diploma of Associate Engineer OR B.Sc. Engineering Technology or equivalent for reserved seats only:
c) Entry Test 2020.
2. MERIT DETERMINATION
2.1 Aggregate
An applicant must have at least 50% overall adjusted aggregate marks. Aggregate marks are computed according to the
following formula:
In case of Intermediate stream:
a) Entry Test (ET) Percentage Marks: 30% weight in merit aggregate.
b) Matric Percentage Marks: 25% weight in merit aggregate.
c) First Year Percentage Marks: 45% weight in merit aggregate.
In case of Diploma of Associate Engineer (DAE) stream:
a) ET Percentage Marks: 30% weight in merit aggregate.
b) Sum of First- and Second-Years Percentage Marks: 70% weight in merit aggregate.
In case of B.Sc. Engineering Technology or equivalent degree stream:
a) ET Percentage Marks: 30% weight in merit aggregate.
b) 7 semesters CGPA if degree is not yet complete: 70% weight in merit aggregate.
In case of foreign qualification:
a) ET Percentage Marks: 30% weight in merit aggregate.
b) Marks earned in 11th Class (“O” level or equivalent): 70% weight in merit aggregate.
Notes:
a) In case the candidate has already completed his/her intermediate or equivalent qualification, their Part-I result
would be used in computation of Aggregate.
b) In case of foreign qualification, letter grade will be converted to marks by IBCC formula. IBCC equivalent
certificate is required to be submitted after admission.
c) In case of B.Sc. Engineering Technology degree holders, CGPA of 2.5 out of 4.0 would be treated as 60% and
CGPA of 4.0 out of 4.0 would be treated as 90%. Other CGPAs would be interpolated accordingly.
3. MERIT OF INTERMEDIATE (PRE-MEDICAL) WITH MATHEMATICS
In determining the merit of an applicant having Intermediate (Pre-Medical) with Mathematics as an additional subject, the
marks obtained in the subject of Biology are replaced by those obtained in Mathematics.
4. CREDIT FOR HAFIZ-E-QURAN

b) Appeared before the “verification committee” appointed by the Vice Chancellor for oral test carrying zero to twenty
marks and the Committee has awarded marks according to the degree of his proficiency.
ii. Intermediate/ DAE/ B.Sc. Engineering Technology or equivalent marks are adjusted according to the following formula:
Percentage Marks obtained in Intermediate/ DAE/ B.Sc. Engineering Technology or equivalent + (Marks awarded by
the Verification Committee/11)
The "Verification Committee" will hold oral test at 09:00 A.M. in UET Lahore on Wednesday 15th July 2020. It may be noted that

“02 Marks for District Level Champion”
“03 Marks for Divisional Level”
“04 Marks for Provincial Level”
“05 Marks for National Level or under 18 representation abroad”
ii. Intermediate/ DAE/ B.Sc. Engineering Technology or equivalent marks are adjusted according to the following formula:
Percentage Marks obtained in Intermediate/ DAE/ B.Sc. Engineering Technology or equivalent + (Marks awarded by
the Verification Committee/11)
The “verification committee” will meet in the office of the Chairman Sports Committee along with Convener Admission Committee.
It will hold sports test at 9:00A.M. Thursday 16th July 2020. It may be noted that no separate call letters will be issued to the

6. DETERMINATION OF MERIT IN CASE OF EQUAL PERCENTAGE OF ADMISSION MARKS
If two or more applicants have equal percentage of admission marks (up to four places of decimal after truncation), they shall
be treated at par for the purpose of admission.
Explanation
In case there is a tie for the last seat in a particular discipline/category, then all the candidates who have secured equal
percentage of admission marks (up to three places of decimal) shall be admitted. No transfer or new entry into that
discipline/category shall, however, be considered unless the actual number of candidates already admitted falls below the
number of allocated seats for that discipline/category.
7. MERIT DETERMINED CATEGORY WISE
The seats for admission to the bachelor’s degree courses at the University are distributed over various categories. These
categories are discussed below. The details of the distribution of seats are available in the Seats Allocation Chart. The
applicants for each category are grouped separately. Then on the basis of the percentage admission marks, comparative
merit of the applicants comprising the group is prepared. The applicants belonging to a category thus compete for admission
amongst themselves for the seats allocated to it.
8. TRANSFER ON THE BASIS OF GIVEN PREFERENCES AND MERIT
In case a seat in any discipline/category of applicant’s higher preference falls vacant and he is eligible for transfer to that
discipline/category on the basis of his merit, he shall be automatically transferred to the discipline/category.
