Example: 1. If an applicant has a master's degree, but only 16 years of education, the officer would
compare the credential and years of study to the education points chart below and, in this case, award
22 points;

Example: 2. If an applicant has a four-year bachelor's degree and 16 years of education, an officer
would award 20 points, as a single two, three, or four-year university credential at the bachelor's level,
combined with at least 14 years of full-time study, is worth 20 points.


Note: Medical doctor degrees are generally first-level university credentials, in the same way that a
Bachelor of Law or a Bachelor of Science in Pharmacology is a first level, albeit “professional” degree
and should be awarded 20 points. If it is a second-level degree and if, for example, it belongs to a
Faculty of Graduate Studies, 25 points may be awarded. If a bachelor's credential is a prerequisite to
the credential, but the credential itself is still considered a first-level degree, then 22 points would be
appropriate. It is important to refer to how the local authority responsible for educational institutions
recognizes the credential: i.e., as a first-level or second-level or higher university credential

Its a bit techincal - you cant count number of years it took to complete MBBS and claim points. MBBS in pakistan too is a graduate level degree. but what you can do is check what Pakistani MBBS is against the below definition. you can check with Qorax as well. he may know somehting about it. if we were able to count number of years than 4 year bachelor would have fetched us 22 points but its the other way around - a sper their definition 4 years bachelor only gets one 20 points as per OP6 guidlines...

Well reference to Pakmate query regarding the points for education, I got my Master degree of Civil Engineering from Russia in 5 years. I also completed one year Russian language course before my Russian master's degree. My total education duration comes out 18 years(i-e: F.Sc. 12 years + One year Russian language course+5 years Master's degree). So how much points can I get against my education?

[haral]

A Masters w/o a bachelors - and i thought those russkies could only make ugly but efficient machines...

I heck lates(dated:17-6-2011) OP 6 and stated there:

Section 10.2 – Education - guidance is provided on how medical degrees should be considered;
essentially medical doctor degrees are generally considered first-level degrees in the same way
as a Bachelor of Law or a Bachelor in Pharmacology. Officers should be guided by how the local
authorities responsible for educational or training institutions recognize the credential.

I check CIC website for Bachelor degree points it give 22 points to Bachelor degree.
