Prospectus 2012-2013
Oh my Lord! Bestow wisdom on me, and join me with the righteous. Grant me honorable mention on the tongue of truth among the latest (generations) 26 (Ash-Shu'ara):83 - 84
Whoever treads a path in search of knowledge, Allah shall ease a way for him to the Garden. And angels spread their wings for the seeker of knowledge, pleased with what he is doing. And all who are in the heavens and all who are in the earth-even the great fish in the water-ask forgiveness for the learned. And the excellence of the learned over any other worshipper is like the excellence of the moon over all planets. Indeed, the learned are the heirs of the prophet; yet the prophets did not bequeath dinars nor dirhams. But surely they have bequeathed knowledge. So whoever acquires it acquires an ample share. (Sunan Al-Tirmidhi, 5:512, #3540)
The hardest conviction to get into the mind of the beginner is that the education upon which he is engaged is not a college course, not a medical course, but a life course, for which the work of a few years under teachers is but a preparation William Osler (1906)

Integrated Curriculum
The Shifa College of Medicine has attained nationwide recognition by adopting an integrated learning approach whereby the curriculum is delivered in a system based spiral, modular format transcending subject boundaries. This is in full conformity with international trends in medical education and this approach is fully endorsed by the HEC and PMDC in its new Curiculum-2011 guiding principles.
Third Spiral revolves around real life clinical practice delivered in clerkship format and will provide comprehensive clinical experience to students. The clerkships include Medicine & Allied, Surgery & Allied, Pediatrics, Obstetrics & Gynecology, Ophthalmology, ENT, and Community Health Aspects /Family Medicine. This spiral also contains four months (16 weeks) electives which are mandated to students in the 4th & Final Year for national/international exposure or Research.

5.3.2 Semester System

Starting with the class of 2017, the MBBS curriculum will be delivered in semester system, in accordance with the HEC requirement for all courses to be semester based. The educational value of semester system is that it is more students centered and has more homogenous distribution of course load for learners/ teachers. It also facilitates continuous in depth assessment of students based on multiple assessments strategies. The semester system will be implemented with the start of class of 2017, and will be implemented in a systematic manner, with the annual system phasing out in the next 3 years. The fourth and final year clerkships will continue to follow an annual format as recommended by HEC and PMDC.
learning strategies. The curriculum continues to evolve in synchronization with international and national trends in medical education. A. Learning Strategies The faculty at Shifa College of Medicine endeavors to implement various available modes of learning and teaching to maximize the output of potential doctors. The desire is to develop a healer who is observant, able to think critically, project his / her ideas effectively in a systematic and coordinated way, and execute his / her plans efficiently. To achieve these objectives and to prepare the students to face challenges of modern times, more emphasis is on self-directed learning with teachers as motivators and facilitators.
5.3.3 Curriculum Delivery

Early introduction to clinical medicine from the first year onwards provides the appropriate relevance to the new integrated curriculum. Thus history and physical examination skills are taught with appropriate module from first year onwards. Formal clinical rotations begin in the third year. By the end of the third year, students are expected to consolidate their skills in the art and science of history taking and physical diagnosis. The 4th & final years of medical school are clerkship based. In these clerkships the students get in-depth exposure to the required clinical disciplines. The goal of the clerkships is to assist the student in developing their expected competencies in the range of problems addressed by the respective disciplines. The level of competency to be achieved is that which is needed in order for the student to practice safe medicine in the community or carry on in postgraduate training in any discipline of the students' choice. Additional exposure in allied specialties continues during these years. Students are expected to initiate research projects of interest under faculty supervision. Small group discussions, problem based learning, self-directed learning, ambulatory exposure, morning reports, clinicopathological conferences (CPC), journal clubs and grand rounds, along with post-graduates are important teaching and
Small Group Learning (SGD) The main learning strength at SCM is Small Group Discussions (SGDs). The learning revolves around clinical cases. Students learn basic and clinical science and apply the concepts to the patient related problem. The teacher acts as a facilitator. Small group learning is also used in the form of Problem Based Learning (PBL). This allows maximum student interaction and promotes self-learning and confidence among students.
Large Group Interactive Sessions (LGISs) LGIS has replaced traditional lectures. Though used sparingly, LGIS is an important strategy to deliver concepts using students' pre-existing knowledge in an integrated way. An interactive case-based scenario is used to introduce a module and discuss broad concepts related to that specific system.
14
Because of relatively smaller number of students in each class, interactive case-based discussions are an effective way of communicating with students.

presentations independently. Senior medical students present overnight cases in Morning Report. Community Based Learning The goals of community based learning are multiple. These relate to public health, community based clinical service and research. The objective is to move the learning environment from the tertiary hospital care to real community setting. This provides a broader perspective and emphasizes disease prevention, health promotion & underlying community needs.
!
Self Directed Learning (SDL) Self-Directed Learning (SDL) sessions, strategically placed in the schedule to facilitate the students' learning related to the theme in progress, are provided to direct their own learning. The purpose of this strategy is to emphasize the need for continuing self assessment and life long learning.
Night Calls in related Clerkships Students are required to take night calls every 4th night in their respective clerkships. This ensures comprehensive exposure to clinical problems.
Remedial Learning Students identified to be facing difficulty or deficiencies in their academic pursuits are helped through remedial program. A remedial program consists of short modules and assignments on topics being taught currently. Appropriate modules are assigned to students with necessary guidance and students are evaluated after completion. B. Learning Resources A learning resource center has been developed in collaboration with the College Library where the students have access to a wide variety of learning resources:
Integrated Practical Sessions (IPS) Practical and clinical skills sessions are incorporated to reinforce the concepts developed during the modules. Students learn skills related to desired CanMEDs competencies in IPS. Most of the skills learned are patient centered & help in diagnosis, communication and counseling the patient.
Clinical Case Presentations The theoretical and practical knowledge is supplemented by field visits and clinical case presentations to allow hands on experience to the students. Faculty, from clinical as well as basic sciences, is present to elaborate and discuss the correlation of basic sciences to clinical practice. Regular meetings in the form of morning report, clinicopathological conferences, morbidity & mortality review meetings, grand rounds and journal clubs provide this opportunity.

foreign qualifications into Pakistani equivalents. It has its own requirements to be met and it can take time. The Shifa College of Medicine has no connections with that office and is, therefore, unable to provide any information or assistance in that connection. It is the applicants' responsibility to obtain the Equivalence Certificate before an offer of admission could be formalized. International applicants are advised to visit the website of IBCC at www.ibcc.edu.pk and establish contact with it on the following address to seek information and guidance: Inter Board Committee of Chairmen, FBISE Building, H/8- 4 Islamabad. Phone: 0519235017-23 Pakistan, web: www.ibcc.edu.pk 4. Entrance Test All applicants, whether they have submitted completed application or provisional, will be required to write the Shifa College of Medicine's Entrance Test. The Entrance Test is an essential requirement of the Admission Process. The results of the Entrance Test make a very significant contribution towards the computation of the final merit of applicants. Higher the score in the Entrance test better are the prospects for selection. Objectives of Entrance Test have evolved over the years with experience. Initially it mainly re-tested HSC contents in order to provide one yardstick for candidates who were drawn from many Boards of Intermediate Education in Pakistan and several foreign educational systems. The Entrance Test provided a reliable common denominator. Over the years, there has been a steady evolution in HSC examination systems under the IBCC. With the efforts of IBCC, there has been a greater degree of uniformity in the examination conducted by various Boards of Education. Subjecting candidates to yet another exclusively HSC test again in the Entrance Test is, therefore, thought repetitive and now redundant. Alongside that, the need has been felt to bring the Entrance Test in line with the intended or desired profile of a medical graduate as per the Mission Statement of the College. To begin with one has to sensitize the future student to what they will have to undertake or expected to demonstrate. The eventual intention is that the future doctor must develop a complete personality of students enriched by sufficient grounding in human empathy, ethics and understanding of
20 Prospectus 2012-2013
heritage that guide and broaden our vision and world view. These aspects are fading fast from our minds, memories and culture. It is, therefore, prudent to sensitize applicants towards these objectives through the Entrance Test so they are aware and mentally prepared for such undertakings. Starting 2012-13, admissions to Shifa College of Medicine the Entrance Test would be modified gradually. The new additions to the content of the Entrance Test would include:
! ! ! ! ! !
Current Affairs Relevant aspects of humanities Ethics Behavioral & Social Sciences Critical thinking and logical reasoning Elements of liberal arts (Iqbaliat and other literature) For the current year only Ethics, Critical thinking and logical reasoning and literature segment will appear that would include selections from Iqbaliat, extracts from Musaddas e Hali, other luminaries and a few reflections from Islamic History. Thus for the current year about two third of the Entrance Test would be based on selected topics of HSC syllabus like the previous years. Nearly one third will be contributed by the new additions. Examples of MCQs are given in the specimen test paper in the College Prospectus. Full content of Iqbaliat is attached with the college Prospectus 2012-2013. Urdu topics are accompanied by English translation. The college plans to put in place a structured program spread over 5 years that would include the topics listed above as well as several other additions. Shifa Entrance Test will be administered at: Paradise Complex, Plot No. 6, Islamabad Expressway to Airport between Faizabad and Khanna Bridge on Sunday, September 09, 2012. 5.Alternative Option As an alternate option the College will accept following: (For International candidates only*)
SAT II in Biology, Chemistry and Physics / Mathematics (Minimum score requirement is 650 each in any two subjects and 550 in third Subject)
(SAT-II SCORES SHOULD NOT BE MORE THAN 2 CALENDAR YEARS OLD) * International candidates (Foreign Nationals, Pakistanis with Dual Nationality and those Pakistani Students who have obtained the required qualifications for admission from outside Pakistan can submit SAT II scores) The requirement for admission will not be complete without the Entrance Test or its alternative. Consequently, the applications of all those candidates who fail to write the Shifa Entrance Test will not be considered beyond this stage The medium of instruction in the college is English, and applicants must realize that adequate proficiency is essential in both verbal as well as written English. Simply appearing in the test of English comprehension is not enough. 6. Interviews Interviews with the faculty of the college form a part of the evaluation for selection. Interviews are conducted by appointment. Each applicant will meet with two interviewers for 15-20 minutes. The purpose of the interviews is to meet a living soul, as opposed to an application on paper, and appreciate those personality attributes, which one would like to see in a caring doctor, such as empathy and understanding. Applicants are cautioned that interviews although held towards the tail end of the admission process, are only a component of the whole process and contribute a small weightage to the cumulative merit. 7. Final Selection Relative weightage of all the components of the Admission Process; academic: 10% achievement in matric or its equivalent, 40% in intermediate or its equivalent, 40%in Shifa
Entrance Test or its alternate option, and 10% in the interview, are added up to arrive at the final merit list. The top applicants on the merit list in both categories will be invited, in writing, to join the first year MBBS class. No formal waiting list will be announced, but all the remaining applicants stay on the waiting list. Any dropouts from the class will be replaced from the waiting list of their respective category, on merit, until the beginning of the Classes. Applicants will be informed of the selection individually by letters / SMS alerts and through Email as soon as the final list is ready. 8. Confirmation of Admission Selected students will be required to confirm their intent to join the college by depositing the admission fee, tuition fee and other fee as prescribed within a week of announcement of selection. If a seat in the first year class is not confirmed by this date, it will be offered to the next person on the waiting list of their respective category. No further claim of admissions by the incumbent applicant will be admissible in such an eventuality.
Result of the final selection will be displayed on the college website as soon as it is ready. Simultaneously, it will be communicated to applicants by email and SMS. Applicants, their parents and well wishers are advised not to approach or telephone the Admission Office, or any officer of the College or Hospital for information before that. They should wait for a written communication from the Admission Office.

Example:
O Muslim youth ! Have you ever used your prudence What was that sky of which you are a fallen star?
In short what should I tell you what those wanderers in wilderness were They were world conquerors, world rulers, world admini strators, and world adorners
You cannot have any relationship with your ancestors You are talk, they were action, you are stars, they were planets
In this poem Iqbal is addressing
A. B. C. D.
The world at large Muslim Ummah Humanity Muslim youth
The Quran is a book which emphasizes deed rather than idea. There are, however, men to whom it is not possible organically to assimilate an alien universe by re -living, as a vital process, which special type of inner experience on which religious faith ultimately rests. Moreover, the modern man, by developing habits of concrete thought - habits which Islam itself fostered at least in the earlier stages of its cultural career - has rendered himself less capable of that experience which he further suspects because of its liability to illusion The Quran places emphasis on
A. B. C. D.

Guidance for OMR Sheet
How to Mark (or fill) the Answer Sheet

The facing page shows a typical answer sheet, which is meant to be scanned (or scored) by a computer. The answer sheet is marked with a pencil or ball point pen depending on what facility the computer has. The answer sheet is allowed to pass through a "scanner" or "optical mark reader" (OMR) just like a sheet of paper passes through a laser printer. In the passage the computer's "eye" or "optical mark reader" detects the pencil or ball point marks and compares the impression with that of a blank answer sheet already fed into its memory. Also present in computer's memory is the imprint of an answer sheet marked, in pen or pencil, with the correct answers. By a comparison of the two the computer is in a position to tell that, compared with the "correct" answer sheet, how many "right" and "wrong" answers have been marked in the student sheet. Because the spaces for marking answers is very precisely laid out on the answer sheet, it is essential that marks are carefully made in the designated spaces, which should not spill over. Following illustration will help you understand the procedure.
1. Writing Your Name Names could have one or more parts. Accordingly the space reserved for the name shows two parts; first , and last. For example take the name Khawaia First Badar -uz- Zaman Middle Afghani Last
Looking at the number of squares made available for the Name it is obvious that the above name cannot be accommodated in full. But the last name and preferably the first name must be written in full as under: First Name K H A W A J A Last Name A F G H A N I
Again, if a name has only one bit like, Mehwish then it should be written against the first name. First Name M E H W I S H Last Name
However, the current lot of computers are not programmed to read the names written in this way. The particular OMR, that is used for scanning answer sheets, can only detect solid blobs. Therefore, the name written in alphabets above has to be converted into black blobs. To do that, in the above example, locate the letter "K" of "Khawaja" vertically below the letter "K" and fill completely that square. Do the same thing for h, a, w, j and a. See how the squares have been filled underneath the name in the illustration Answer Sheet. Unless this is done, the computer would not register the identity of that particular sheet. You will have to fill in your name in the same way. 2. Identification Number (ID No.) Two or more persons can have the same name. But two persons cannot have the same identification number. The purpose of the identification number is to ensure identity through a unique number for every individual. Therefore, it is essential that the identification number
38
is copied with great care. Identification number could be named differently lik, roll number, application number, identity number or registration number and so on. Please note that it has nothing to do with your national identity card number. In your case, usually it is the application number. For example, if your identification number, or roll number or registration number (you will be, normally, advised what is your identification number) is 156, then it should be filled in the following manner; starting from the left 1 5 6
Or if it is, M021, then it will be filled accordingly; M 0 2 1
The squares under the identification number will have to be filled in exactly the same manner as done for the name.
3.
Marking Answers For marking answers to questions two characteristics have to be noted; one, the serial number of the question (or item) and second, the alphabet of the selected choice. That is, if it is a multiple choice question then one of the alphabets (A, B, C, D, E) has to be chosen. If it is a choice between True and False, then one of the two must be selected for marking. Supposing you wish to mark choice "C" against MCQ No.1 then locate No.1 and against that alphabet C, and the circle "C" should be marked by filling it completely.

If the mark spills out of the circle, the computer may read it as a WRONG answer or ignore it completely. On the other hand, the marking should not be incomplete within the circle. Please see how the answers to the specimen paper have been marked in the answer sheet.
