Who does not want to get admitted to NUMS to become a professional army medical doctor? Everyone wants! Most of the students do not have such a strong desire for King Edward University as NUMS does. The love for army exists deeply in their hearts as compared to other private and public medical colleges. They will be wearing army uniform from the very the first day, and feeling proud of being called a NUMSIAN.
In this article, you will know everything about NUMS, it will be updated with the passage of time.
Why Was NUMS Established? Formally Alias AMC, Rawalpindi
You might be thinking what is NUMS Pakistan? Why it was established? Because students will be admitted to well-known army colleges – speed up the process – and it will save a lot of time as students have to pay one time fees for all the 5 medical colleges at once. One admission form will be responsible for 5 medical colleges instead of one as it was in the past. In this way, your degree will be internationally accepted.
You know that NUMS stands for National University Medical Sciences which consists of 5 army medical colleges which are the followings:
1. Army Medical College, Rawalpindi, Punjab
2. CMH Lahore Medical College, Lahore, Punjab
