PMDC has also confirmed that the MDCAT curriculum/syllabus 2025 will be applicable for MDCAT 2026.
This means there is no new syllabus shift for MDCAT 2026. Students should prepare according to the PMDC MDCAT 2025 syllabus, which is already available on the PMDC official syllabus section.

Students should use the official PMDC syllabus as the base document for preparation.
Although PMDC has confirmed that the 2025 syllabus will be used for MDCAT 2026, many students still face one major problem:
The official syllabus gives topics, but it does not always provide a complete exam-level breakdown of every subtopic that can appear in MDCAT.
During MDCAT preparation, Nearpeer’s academic team observed that many questions are asked from RSTs — Relevant Subtopics. These are exam-relevant areas connected to PMDC topics, but not always clearly written as separate subtopics in the official syllabus.
This creates confusion for students because they may think they have completed a topic, but still miss important connected areas that are tested in MCQs.
Nearpeer created a detailed PMDC + RSTs syllabus breakdown to help students prepare with more clarity.
This syllabus:
Nearpeer’s syllabus does not replace the PMDC syllabus. It makes the official syllabus more student-friendly and preparation-focused.

MDCAT is not just about reading chapters. It is a high-pressure MCQ exam where small subtopic gaps can cost marks.
RSTs help students understand:
This is why Nearpeer recommends that students prepare using both:
PMDC official syllabus + Nearpeer’s RST-based breakdown
This gives students the safest and most complete preparation direction for MDCAT 2026.
Nearpeer is also conducting a Free MDCAT Bridge Batch 2026 to help students start early and prepare with proper guidance.
