So here I'm so confused! Got my A level result today! My result is 2A*( Bio n Urdu) and 2A ( Chem n phy). So firstly I was planning to do Medical but now I've changed my mind. Medicine M.B.B.S take 5 years 1 year of house job, then Specialization takes 2 years and further 2 years getting ur self recognized as doctor. So that's make 10 years. So Secondly medical has lost it's charm as it used to have a few years back. So I'M CONSIDERING A GAP Year!! I'll apply to LUMS next year 2014, for B.S Accounts and Finance. Is it a right decision or not. What will u RECOMMEND ME? Tell me other options too! Please need ur Help!

Best Canadian Universities for Engineering?


i dont know about best canadian universities

BUT if u apply to any course, go for a CO-OP course

instead of a normal course


so go for
"Co-op engineering"

NOT for
"engineering"

Co-op is a paid internship course. Your course is lengtened from 4 years to 5 years. Within an year, you gain job experience sort of. And if you impress your employer, he may hire you after your graduation

if you remain employed for 12 months simultaneously, u can apply for canadian citizenship!

If you want to get scholarships in foreign universities,

i say aim for at least 8A. 10A or more would be great

BUT there are other things universities, want like extra-corricular activities. Winning competitions (NOT JUST PARTICIPATION)

join the debating society of ur school. O2 is the perfect time to do so. If you want to, then you can repeat pakst and isl

What do you want to do? course?
Even with a scholarship, you must pay around 10-15 lakh per year in a foreign university

SO, you must keep your options open in pakistan

Last year 95% of candidates who got admission in LUMS had at least 6A or above in olevels

For pakst paper 2, geography, you can also consult my book

well 95% of students who got admission into LUMS in 2012, they had 6A or above in Olevel
in Alevels, they give you a MINIMUM requirement of 2B and a C, if you manage to get admission through the entry test

i dont know about the entry test, as i did not give it. Sorry
