I have got a really bad result in my Alevel's final. I have 3 C's in my As-level which i had hoped to maintain in my Alevels but now i have got 3 D's in my Alevel. I feel very much depressed. I was quite sure i could atleast maintain 2 of the 3 subjects but it all ended with 3 D's. I had Physics, Chemistry and Maths.

What i wanted to know if i'm still eligible to get admissions in Nust or Fast as they require 60% or above in equivilance of alevels i guess. Please i am not looking to repeat my full Alevels now. That would be too much frustrating since i would have to give all 3 full subjects.

My Nust test is on 20th August and i am on the waiting list for Fast. May Allah help me. So can someone please tell me if i can still get into Nust or Fast with these grades as i have heard these University's ask for your Alevels equvilance and that equvilance is given by combining your olevels equvilance which should be above 60% (combined).

Is that true? Since i had 79% equvilance of my olevels, how much would i end up for my alevels equivlace then?
Please some help me. In alot of pressure here. =(

Hello!
I think they require at least a "C" in A levels but your total equivalence is gonna be higher than 70% which is good.

I calculated your equivalence for Olevels + Alevels and it came to be equal to = 73%
So you don't have to worry!

Here is how I calculated your Equivalence.

Your O levels was 79% ...so to convert that into marks 0.79*900 = 711
So your O levels marks are 711/900 (79%)

Now to calculate your A level marks you got 3 D's (D= 55 marks in IBCC)
Calculation according to IBCC is (55*3)/300 * 200 that equals to 110/200 marks.
Now you total equivalence will be equal to : (O levels) + (Alevels) : (711/900) + (110/200)
This equals to 821/1100 marks which is equal to 75%

Since IBCC will deduct 2% so your final percentage for HSSC will be 73%
and yes I think you will be eligible for NUST. :
Good luck!

R u sure about u r method

R u sure about u r method

Yes i am sure
I recently gave my documents for equivalence.

Yes i am sure
I recently gave my documents for equivalence.

It is better that you don't repeat from Pakistan.

But if you provide them proof that you studied abroad then I think you will not need those subjects.
Who knows, just call them and ask!
