From Wikipedia:

Dhaka Medical College and Hospital (DMCH), established in 1946 during the British colonial rule, is the top medical college in Bangladesh. Situated at the heart of the city in the academic zone along with University of Dhaka and Bangladesh University of Engineering and Technology, Dhaka Medical College is an educational institution with a rich heritage.

For the top 180 freshmen places in 2006 in whole Bangladesh, nearly 18000 (eighteen thousand) applicants sat for the medical college entrance examination. The different batches of Dhaka Medical College are named with the prefix K, as for example K-60, which denotes the 60th batch of the college that was admitted in 2003. The meaning of the prefix K is still mysterious and there are different opinions. Some say, K, being the 11th letter of the English alphabet, signifies the 11th medical college of the-then Indian subcontinent. Some other opines that K is for Calcutta, as many of the first students came from Calcutta Medical College.
