Best Universities are Harvard and Cambridge and stuff.
But it's like very difficult to get into them. They take like 3 students from Pakistan every year.
Even highest-scorers don't get into these universities.

As for your field, do something you like and have interest in.
I changed my field a lot. I wanted to be President, then Physicist, then a Detective, then a Lawyer, and now a Doctor.
I know it's going to be hard work and all, but that's my current choice. I don't like Engineering, sounds stupid.
I mean Electrical Engineer, they come and fix light bulbs in people's homes. (I used to think, when i was a kid)
But if someone is an Electrical Engineer, they would fix their light bulbs themselves, won't need to call an Electrician.
I find it boring. I mean circuits, blah blah.
Chemical Engineer's manufacture chemicals.
I don't like all that stuff. >.<

But if you have interest in Maths and Sciences, go into Engineering.
If you are interested in the Neurological and Psychological thoughts, emotions of human beings, how they behave and think, then become a Psychologist.
If you are good at Sketching and like structures and stuff, then become an Architect. Easy!

Fixing light bulbs and manufacturing chemicals? o_O If all that Engineers did was this then why waste so much money on studies?

For now, just make sure you do well in O level. You will have plenty of time to select your career when you reach A level. As for universities, don't even think about it before O levels. For now, concentrate on getting something like 10 A grades or better. A* and distinctions would be great. Do as much ECs as possible. Try to win some awards at international or national level.

Why are you so skeptical about engineering? Engineering provides one of the best careers for students of developing countries like Bangladesh and India. They are highly paid and they just don't fix light bulbs :p Electrical engineers often end up doing stuffs in the hydraulic or nuclear power stations and in develpment of mordern high-tech electronic gadgets. It's a delight for anyone who has a deep passion for physics, maths and computing

Is 9 A's a bad thing? What difference would one more A make?
