Applied Biosciences as a Career

By With 1 comment:


Our universe is teemed with microorganisms; they are so ubiquitous that even hundreds and thousands of them are on our skin. So automatically we are susceptible to a number of diseases. But why are we not in hospital every second day? What is it that makes us immune to them? 

How an eye cell knows it has to become an eye cell and a liver cell knows it has to become a liver cell when both of them have same kind of genetic information? Why is there not an eye cell in a liver tissue and a liver cell in retina? What is it that maintains homogeneity? Why every person in the world, even the identical twins, has different finger prints? Have you ever wondered? Do you want to know the answers to these questions? If yes, then Applied Biosciences is your field.

So the first that clicked to your mind is what is Applied Biosciences, right? Okay, you are lucky then as I am here with an answer today. Science basically has two domains: the Basic and the Applied science. Applied Biosciences is the application of basic science of biology.  It provides the solutions to the problems encountered by us humans. It has provided us with best health facilities (Immunology), with food and shelter (Biotechnology), with drugs to cure ailments (pharmacology) etc. 

The next question that comes in your mind is what would you study in Applied Biosciences? The courses that are offered in Applied Biosciences include Biotechnology, Biochemistry, Bioinformatics, Genetics, Animal Physiology, Plant Physiology, Immunology, Vaccinology, Crop Production, Anti-viral Approaches etc. For further details, follow this link: Course Curriculum

The next question would be why should people join this field? The answer is one of the perks of opting Applied Biosciences is that you can study all the field of biology during this four year program and you can do research in any of the field you find fascinating.  So you are away from the disappointment that one has to face when he/she has opted for a single field, say Biochemistry, and in the middle of their four year program they find out that they were made for Genetics or Bioinformatics or Biotechnology or something else. Further, you were made for applied biosciences if:
  • You want to be a researcher and solve the potential problems.
  • You have an inquisitive mind
  • You are a keen observer and a problem solver
  • You want to lessen the pain of someone 
  • You take things as a challenge
You can become a researcher (immunologist, microbiologist etc.); can work in a research institution, Healthcare industry, Pharmaceutical industry, Food industry and Agriculture industry. You can work as a scientific officer in Diagnostic labs and forensics. You can opt for Biomedical Engineering, Stem cell Biology, Cancer Biology, Synthetic Biotechnology etc. after having this program.

Applied Biosciences is a vast program that covers all the aspects of Biology. It has obvious implications in our daily life. From getting infected to getting cured is all you study in Applied Biosciences.

Preparation of Shifa Entrance Test

By With No comments:

The Entrance Test of Shifa for the Year 2015 is scheduled to be conducted on October 9th, 2015. The last date to get registered for the test is September 18th, 2015. The details about registrations are available here: Shifa College of Medicine

There will be 5 portions in the test:
  • Biology - 30 MCQs
  • Chemistry - 30 MCQs
  • Physics - 30 MCQs
  • English - 15 MCQs
  • Mathematics - 15 MCQs
The topics that are to be prepared for each of these subjects is available on the website of Shifa. The questions of Biology & Chemistry are mostly book based i.e. those can be solved if you have learned your text books, so for these subjects I'd suggest to just focus on your course books. 

English Portion:
According to Shifa: 
 "English section will test mainly comprehension and vocabulary"
The vocabulary words can be from any source, there is no defined syllabus for it. So those who are cramming the vocab words from SAT books or any other source I'd advice them not to do so and instead invest their time in preparation of Sciences. For comprehension portion all you need is the practice and that can be done from any source, either SAT books or the internet.

Physics & Maths Portion:
The portions where most of the students loose their marks are Physics & Maths. This is because both these involve some calculations and medical students because of being not familiar with maths since last 2 years face issues in these. These two subjects carry 180 marks in total. Most of the students will be able to solve the rest of the paper but these 2 portions are the ones which really will decide who is going to be selected. This is why we have created an online course, in which we will help & test you in the preparation of these 2 portions. It will be a 15 days online course. According to the syllabus given on website there are 15 topics of Physics that are to be prepared, so this makes one topic per day. For Maths, there are about 10 topics that you need to prepare which would also be covered in these 15 days course.

Format of the Online course:
For Physics you will need to prepare a topic daily according to our schedule. The next day you will be tested from that topic. The test will be online. You can solve the test at any time of the day & as many times as you wish to. When you will complete the test you will be shown your scores, correct answers & solutions for all the questions. In the solutions we will explain the short ways of solving the questions so that you may save some of your time in the test. For Maths we will first post the explanation and the details (formulas etc) that you need to prepare for the topic and the next day you will be tested from that. So for maths we will provide you all the material needed for the preparation.
Every registered student will have his/her own personal account using which all the stuff will be accessed. The course will hosted on our website ( oetp.pk ). Previously we had been conducting online preparation session for NUST which proved to be much helpful.

Registration Process: 
The fee for the online session is Rs 1000 , the session will continue for 15 days. During the session students will have a chance to contact us any time via facebook or call. In case someone is facing difficulty in preparation of maths, skype session can be arranged and in case you are from Rawalpindi / Islamabad region a meeting of an hour or two can be fixed during which all your queries will be resolved but that would be in case if you are not able to understand from the data we will upload during the session. We will also create a facebook group, which only registered members can join for discussions. The session will start from 15th of September.
The Fee i.e Rs 1000 is to be submitted in HBL. Fill the form given below, on completing the form you will be shown the fee details, note those down. Visit any branch of HBL, get the deposit slip from them, fill that with our fee details and submit that. The bank will return you a copy of the deposit slip. You are required to send the picture of that slip via email to us. Our Email ID ( etpbooklet@gmail.com )

Statistics of MCAT 2015

By With 1 comment:
Given below are the statistics of MCAT 2015 in comparison to statistics of MCAT 2014 and MCAT 2013. The data below shows that the merit will fall this year. Now the question is how much will it fall? According to me it will be about 0.5% lower than the previous year (It can be more too). A decrement in merit of UHS means that merit of private medical colleges (which consider MCAT in merit making) will also be lower.
