How to read closing merit
The closing merit is the aggregate marks of the last candidate admitted to a specific program in a given category. It is a historical record, not a guarantee of future admission cutoffs. UET Taxila calculates your aggregate based on 50% HSSC Part-I, 33% Entry Test (ECAT/TCAT), and 17% SSC. See the merit formula guide for details.
