An actuarial is one of the top two top best rated jobs, it is highly paid and quite socialising and well known in a society. Well, I was also planning for becoming an actuary but was wondering, how long does it take to become one successful one? The minimum and maximum.. :)

Can anyone please tell an institute for uk actuary program in Karachi

if you mean an external program then nope

cbm has its actuarial sciences program but it is useless ... before choosing any career understand your suitability for that career in terms of your temperament, then the growth prospects in that career, exit options, after retirement issues, etc

no one in pakistan can teach you actuarial sciences properly .. the programs that are offered will not train you enough to clear the FSA papers ... even many foreign universities do not have programs that deal with actuarial sciences so students in those universities do BSc math & stats, then try to clear the Actuarial Sciences papers

and in any case even if you do clear the FSA papers you will not be able to use most of those skills in Pakistan .. due to lack of data collection, lack of skilled workers, lack of a developed insurance industry with sophisticated products

This field is an extensive and rigorous field. Main subjects include Maths, Further mathematics,Economics,Accounting,Business Studies,Statistics,Sociology and a little Psychology. It has many exams . Each exam passed makes you closer to the profession. The 2 to 3 examzs at the start have less than 50% passing chance.
