I`m still giving my account a look everyday for any update. Just the `Admitted to MGSHSS` Sign doesn`t seem enough right now Lums walay salam hi keh den saath..

I heard in Oxford, the interview is the most important factor as long as you have decent A level grades. A student with 4 As may get accepted but another applicant with 5 A*s may get rejected! :/ Oxford admission system is WEIRD!

That is actually very true. Their system of teaching is very different. The university is divided into colleges, around 20 or so. Each college has all the majors, but teaches separately, so in a way, each college accepts only around 8 or 9 students, depends on the major though. Since the 'classes' are so small, they want people who can remember information and recall it in the blink of an eye. So classes can be like 1 teacher and 3 students. That's why the interviews are really important.

Did you give the interview? Do they ask academic stuffs and common-sense wala questions eg solving a puzzle or a problem? How can I prepare myself to ace the interview? I will apply for 2015 Insha allah if I get good A level grades, so I have time to prepare and develop myself in an Oxford-way . What do you suggest? Btw there are no admission tests for international applicants, right? How much does high school transcripts, essays and teacher recommendations matter? Do they give a damn to extra curricular achievements related to the course in which the student applies? Do they even look at Sat scores if an applicant submits it along with A level grades? Thanks

Agreed. I can see huge Anti-Punjab Sentiments within KPK from PTI Supporters. This is exactly what we don`t want. Imran Khan should work on making KPK the `Model Province` so that he can win over the whole country the next time. Right now, we should wait, and hope PML-N Establish a stable government and alteast solve the basic issues.

Oh ya i mistakenly highlighted this part :Lets hope this new government lives up to the expectations, whilst i was only intending to focus on this: we`re Pakistan, so we don`t need this division amongst Provinces.
I was appreciating your viewpoint, since you see how nowadays interprovincial hatred is being widely spread on purpose.

As of Pmln , we have zero hopes pinned with the new gov. The history of their past leaderships isnt long forgotten. so zilch hope.

My friends pointed out that Nawaz Sharif always chooses the worst possible Army Chief's since both times they overthrew him and took over the govt I don't think he's learnt from the past.

People who got an offer in may, when is the last date to submit the admission fee? I'm trying to estimate when they will dispatch the letter to the wait listed candidates.

23rd May

So the May list has been released? Are the decisions still coming on daily basis or will the next ones will come in next list? I am asking because some of my friends still await their decision...

I think the next ones will come in the next list. That seems to be the pattern..

Off the topic :
Mubashar Luqman`s Tweet `Imran Khan is more Physically hurt than some realize. He had a fall virtually from the second floor and many fell on him`.
I`ve also read this elsewhere. It seems IK`s condition isn`t stable at all.
So guys do keep praying for him, and hope that InshAllah he`ll get better soon.

Yup 9th May. However I think that there are going to be a couple more lists this month. Im saying this cos a friend of mine who is awaiting his decision got a call from LUMS today. They were asking for aid-related documents. Point being that there are going to be more acceptances and they would come in form of lists.
