UHS makes a booboo!

University of Health Sciences (UHS), due to reasons unknown, gave exactly the same pharmacology paper to MBBS Part III students that it gave last year, Pakistan Today has learnt.
Per details, the second Professional Annual Exam of pharmacology of MBBS Part III was held on Saturday and to the students’ and professors’ amazement the paper was exactly the same as last year’s. “Initially some of the students thought that the actual paper had been leaked and hence the last year’s paper has been given at the eleventh hour but then when everyone came to know of it, it was clear that it was a blunder,” a student who sat for the exam said.
Professor of Pharmacology Shabbir Bhatti, former controller examination at the KEMU, said, “I’ve never heard of such a thing in my entire career…I do not know about the intention of the examination authorities or whether it was a mistake or not, but sometimes there is a fear of leakage of the paper if this is repeated. It is easy to tell someone to do the last year’s paper to pass, otherwise a student can be evaluated even from this paper.”
A UHS spokesperson said the matter will be enquired properly and those responsible be punished. He further said the incident “neither favoured nor harmed anyone” because the exam was new for the students taking it.
