From 2011 till todate, students seeking admission in government and private medical and dental colleges of Bangladesh need to submit their applications and fees through Internet and mobile phones. They receive their admit cards, admission test time-table, examination hall information and result through Internet and mobile phones. A single admission test has been introduced for both public and private medical and dental colleges. Examination scripts are processed by optical mark reader system. The students, their guardians, examination authority and academic institutions find this new system extremely useful, quicker and reducing work burden. When I was the Director of MIS-DGHS, we introduced this innovative system which replaced the manual processes prevailing earlier.
