MP Flags Admission Gaps

MP Amal Asfour has submitted a request for a briefing to review admission criteria for medicine and engineering programs at public, private, and national universities, as well as branches of international universities. The move follows disparities in minimum admission scores, which have raised questions about fairness and equal opportunity. She called for admissions decisions to go beyond high school exam scores and include assessments of the abilities and aptitudes required for each field, while taking differences between education systems into account and aligning enrollment numbers with labor-market needs. She stressed that the review is intended to improve graduate quality and ensure that the most suitable students are selected—not to restrict access to university.
