I'm bad at Maths, everything else I do quite decently.
I'm interested in Music as well, my mates tell me i'm talented at it, but I believe i'm ok.
If you think you are good in Music, I would surely encourage you to take this profession. Do what really makes you enthusiastic.

You must take Science subjects especially Mathematics and Physics, which are compulsory. Chemistry could be the third option.
Oh .. I was told CHEM and maths would be the compulsory subs for this field .. While phy would be optional ..
Maybe , someone misguided me :/

First of all, it is not a majorly recognised university. Secondly, a few American universities do accept students after O Levels, the most recognised one being Michigan State University. Majority of universities in US, Canada and Australia do not accept O Levels only. And nearly all UK universities do not accept GCSE qualified students directly into their undergraduate programs.
fahmeed these types of universities have high fees which few people can afford it.

Chemistry is also as important as Physics, and that person may have not misguided you. It differs from university to university what they require.

Sir, what do you think of Dentistry in comparison to Medicine, and of dentistry as a profession. :D

NUST is a an excellent academic institution with world class recognition.

Yes, you can do CA without prior knowledge of accountancy, and there are many career pathways for CA.
Thanks for the help.
Just a few questions more
I am done with my SAT 1 got a score of 2170. Is this a decent score?
If so what are my chances getting in an University in America/Canada?

Secondly, I read lot of posts regarding German Universities would you suggest me any?
How about University of Edinburgh?

Once again Thanks a bunch.............

ACCA is a better option but if you have low academic skill then go for a bba .. with the ACCA (if you give it privately) you can also work ... getting some money is better than no money at all and you will also start your career but the ACCA's curriculum will be tougher than that of the BBA

First of all, this planning is done ahead of graduation.

At this percentage, you dont have many options. And I can assess it will be hard for you to complete ACCA on time. And it will be hard to do other lucrative courses ICMAP, CIMA, CMA, CPA etc.

You can study BBA, but nowadays, BBAs from reputed institutions are recognised and other degree programs are just considered pieces of paper.
