Military College Jhelum entry test — sections and what they drill.

Good to know
Military College Jhelum is one of the oldest military colleges on the armed-forces pathway; its entry paper's Aptitude / Islamiat section (IQ, pattern recognition, Islamiyat) is the section most students have never practised before.
Frequently asked questions
What is the Military College Jhelum entry test pattern?
The written paper is 200 marks over three hours in four sections of 50 marks each — Mathematics; English with Urdu; General Science; and Aptitude with Islamiat (IQ, pattern recognition, Islamiyat) — as set out in the table on this page. The college's own admission notice for your year is the final word on sections and marks.
Is there negative marking in the MCJ entry test?
The paper's own instructions decide, and they can change year to year — prepare for the possibility. The safe habit costs nothing either way: answer what you know confidently and think twice before guessing blindly on the rest.
Which class does Military College Jhelum admit at?
The main national gate is Class 8 — the free Class-8 model paper on this site targets it. The college's own notice lists which classes are open in a given year, so verify there before preparing for a specific gate.
How should I prepare for the MCJ entry test?
The pattern overlaps with the other military and cadet colleges, so one preparation covers them all. Take the free diagnostic, drill the four sections' topics daily, and sit the full Class-8 model paper (free PDF, no sign-up) under exam timing every few weeks — the missed-topics list is your practice plan.
