salam
ok inbox me ur olevel grades?
from which city u have a domicile of. Where were u born?

i wud say DONT give nust because its syllabus for alevel students is very very long

go to kips. Do UHS mcat session (DONT GO FOR NUMCAT session)

but KETS books (from kips). Only students who study in kips can buy them
Do thoroughyl the test that kips takes from students and note the questions u find difficult

suppose i have a domicile for punjab, and I give the UHS entry test, Can I still apply for Aga Khan?

yes im alevel student. I did alevel in 2012. im in aimc these days

well have u made ur ssc equivalence? U MUST MAKE IT NOW!

U cannot make HSSC equivalence until u have SSC equivalence first. They DONT make them simultaneously
ur SSC equivalence would inshAllah be around 89%, which is very good

Focus on mcat. Its very very important

u didnt tell me from which city u have a domicile from? have u made a domicile? U NEED THAT

lahore. which school did you do your a levels from? and how do you recommend i should study?
do i need to go through whole of the f.sc textbook...??? and revise my a level syllabus as well.????
i checked the uhs syllabus...... in which they have missed out some topics from the f.sc textbook e.g in uhs syllabus no mention is given to chloroplasts , cell wall, lysosomes , and vacuoles in chapter cell biology...... whereas the f.sc textbook contains all these topics.......... so shall i do these topics as well.?????

SAT is only for people who are FOREIGN NATIONALS and want to apply to govt medical colleges. It is NOT for pakistani nationals

yes you can apply to AKU. AKU paper mostly comes from Alevels. But since i didnt give it, i dont know for sure. Contact OakMoon!

I did my alevel from lgs jt. You ONLY DO TOPICS THAT ARE MENTIONED IN UHS SYLLABUS (NOT THE WHOLE BOOK)
No need to revise Alevel syllabus. I dont think any thing comes from that

hmmm....... well it depends. Doing electrical engineering in LUMS is a good option with Alevels (but getting admission into electrical in lums needs good olevel grades. What are your olevel grades

getting admission into govt engineering colleges need equivalences. I know people who got into NUST. Going to for other engineering colleges is very very tough because their syllabus ive heard is radically different from alevel. U wud have to confirm this with someone else as im a medical student

well it depends on university . i have seen that only LUMS IBA and AKU provide SAT based entry test and others have FSC based so you need to study FSC course :/

yes i went to kips. Well there are questions u know u can do. U dont note them. There are some questions u will find difficult. Keep a note of them. Dont solve the test. Just give it a read and copy the difficult ones. For u to do that u must listen the lectures carefully so for u to understand concepts. Then if u find a question difficult then u shud copy it

yes english in kips is harder than the one in mcat. KIPS people take questions from SAT1 books. Just cram the vocabulary words and try to remember the basic rules of grammar in case u get a grammar question in mcat. No need to worry a lot about that. Do read the KETS english book.

Vocab should be prepared very thoroughly

if you get good grades like A and A*, then you have a very good chance of making to a govt university

Get 9A* in olevels. Then I can guarantee that you have secured 40% of your admission easily.

There ARE NO MARK DEDUCTIONS for OLEVELS. Its a wrong thing. We heard it as well. IT DOES NOT EXIST

GIVE olevels, get good grades and get into a good Alevel school

where did you do your olevels and alevels from?

what do u mean by KMC? King edward medical college?

okay since ur giving BOTH olevel and alevel from OUTSIDE pakistan, they will count 5 subjects for SSC equivalence

phy
chem
bio
eng
math

A* gives 90
A 85
B 75
C 65
D 55

your marks are 390 out of 500, which gives a rough total of 78%. Im sorry considering that these Olevel marks are very very important and they add into your alevel marks, your grades are not good. You will NOT make it to a government university. Merit of KE is like 90%. Merit of whole of GOVERNMENT medical colleges in punjab ends at around 83%

Olevel forms around 40% of marks, Alevel around 10%, and the MCAT rest of 50%

FOR A TRUER UNDERSTANDING OF EQUIVALENCE CALCULATION SEE THIS. DO READ IT
http://www.xtremepapers.com/community/attachments/mbbs-guide-pptx.19001/

Well, I dont know what to suggest. Why are you giving Alevel maths? It doesnot count. For alevels you only need phy,chem and bio

There is always an option of going to a private medical college if you wish so

is there any such attachment which can elaborate the equivalence method for engineering colleges and universities also?....i would be very gratefull for your response..:)

Hey im a bit confused to! I have finished my O' Levels and dont know whether i should go for F.Sc or A Levels! I want to do A Levels but the problem is, ppl say that in A levels u should score Straight As and not a single "B"!! Well is this really true? Plus I heard that marks are not deducted in equivalence. Is this also true? Plz guide me, I wanted to go for UET, FAST or LUMS for my future studies! What are their criteria, i mean if i do A Levels, would it create a hell lot of problems for me to get admission in these universities? and one more thing, is it compulsory for me to give SAT exams for getting admission in better universities or its just useless for me? Thanks in advance :) I would really appreciate your guidance :)
Ps: sorry for my poor english.

well.... getting into lums after a level is a pretty easy job .... if you have got good grades in o levels....!!! but if you are trying to get into UET .... then after a levels you have to cover the f.sc syllabus too .... I guess....!!!
