However, there may be some exceptions to this rule. For instance, students who have failed the 8th class more than once may be eligible for admission in the 9th class even if they are older than 16. Additionally, students who have studied in a foreign education system and wish to transfer to the Multan Board may also be exempt from the age limit.
To be sure, it is always best to contact the Multan Board directly to inquire about age limits for admission in the 9th class.
