Sana'a - Saba:
Today, the competitive exams for free seats in Yemeni public and private universities for the 1447H academic year commenced at the Electronic Testing Center of the Faculty of Dentistry, Sana'a University. The exams cover medical, engineering, administrative, and humanities disciplines.
A total of 8,410 students (including 2,685 female students) applied for the exams. Among them, 3,177 students applied for medical disciplines and were tested in Chemistry, Biology, and English.
Officials overseeing the exams praised the high level of organization and technical preparations at the testing center, which is equipped with over 1,500 computers and accommodates more than 1,000 students per session. Students were distributed across four daily sessions to ensure smooth exam administration.
Exams for engineering, computer science, administrative sciences, and humanities will continue tomorrow (Wednesday), while Thursday is reserved for 2,095 late-registered students who completed payment after the deadline.
Dr. Hatem Al-Duais, Deputy Minister of Education, confirmed that seat allocation is based on:
- 60% competency exam results
- 40% high school GPA
This allows students to receive their results immediately.
Dr. Ibrahim Luqman, Deputy Minister of Higher Education, noted that the 4,000+ free seats compensate for the absence of foreign scholarships due to the ongoing aggression, providing outstanding students the opportunity to pursue their desired specializations.
