According to the Minister of Health, Abdul Qadir Patel, the MDCAT dates will be announced later on, but PMC has acknowledged how candidates ready to take these examinations must have been feeling.

Students had mixed reactions to the news, some being optimistic and grateful for it being postponed, but others were not so overjoyed with the fact that the exams they had been preparing for would be pushed further, yet again.
