AOA!
I know a FSC pre-medical student , who scored 920 marks in fsc exams .
Now , he doesn't know wether he will attend any medical college this year .
The actual story is below in his own narrated words:
'' The govt announced back on 1st july that the entraqnce test will be held on 20 july , (earlier , the date used to be in october) irrespective of the fact that our last practical of biology was on 9th july. PMDC stated that not enough time was being given to students to prepare for test as the syllabus comprised of 1styear + 2nd year books of ENGLISH , PHYSICS, BIOLOGY and Chemistry becoming a total of 100+ chapters.
Many protested , but all was at loss . Then only 10 days before the test on 10 july (date not confirmed) UHS (University of health sciences ) announced that only those students will be permitted to take entrance test who secured 65% or more in FSC . Those who were attempting entry test for the first time were told to submit HOPE certificate form respective colleges .
PMDC protested as the % of fsc marks required to attempt entrance test in other provences was 60 % . UHS had announced that sitting in this test was compulksory to get admission in private medical colleges.
Someone even filed a case to in Lahore High court to do something . The entrance test was carried out . The passing percentage required by a studentwas 60 %.
In case of frest students , who were attempting Entrance test for the first time , only 20% acquires more than 60 % marks . the rest were old repeaters .
The court in its hearing after 20 july , stated that the test should be repeated allowing students to sit again + those who had 60 % marks .
It was held again on 14th october , but only those were allowed who had not attempted first test .
NOw the question is , as critics say , how many Universities actually take to seperate tests for one seat ???? With a difference of 60+ days ????

HI, SI
Vice Chancellor
These politicians have direct involement in education policy , the CM Shehbaz Sharif told that this was done as students spend thousands of rupees in academies such as KIPS .
I know many of my friends who had submitted 18000 rupees in kips for 2.5 month course , but after the govt decision of 20 july entry test , were tuitioned oft 15 days only .
Now , when the time came for submitting documents , ww were told that the new percentage was 10 % metric marks , 40 % fsc , 50 % entry test irrespective of the fact that UHS had announced back before 20 july before both the tests were conducted that the percentage wll be 70 % fsc , 30 % entry test . Some one filed a case in LHC and decision was made that UHS must follow the percentage formulae of 70-30 % as per their announcement before the tests.
Now , the dates for submitting forms were 1st to 7th november.

UHS had clearly written that the documents must b submitted by hand .
NOw , on 1st day of submitting documents , when I reached UHS I was told that documents will only be accepted after the receiver sees original documents .
Now, tell me please why they had then asked that the documents to be submitted must be attested by first degree magistrate????
People from Multan Rahim yar Khan , went all the way back to collect original ones .........
Now , UHS has , to elevat education level announced that from next year , the entrance test of FSC and NON FSC students will be one , comprising of both books + another book form mbbs 1st year of behavioural sciences.
ENGLISH
BIOLOGY
Now , it means every fsc student will have ot buy non fsc books , costing thousands of rupess , WHY????
ANOTHER GREAT POLICY BY SHRIF BROS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
