The official Pakistani Thread for the class of 2013

sorry but the 2000 posts in the other pakistani thread are mostly fom non Pakistanis, I would like everyone from pakistan to list their specific queries here. of course all those who have gotten their acceptances are welcome to share their stats. it will really help everyone from pakistan. Please also say if you applied for aid and how much you are getting. Specific Chance me threads are welcome too.

3 months? I say three years. All Pakistanis are hiding out here somewhere because there got to be a lot of em - according to a poll, 20% of CCers are from the Pakistan and India. Guess our brothers really do mind the FBI on their backs. Or CIA for that matter.

I am a Pakistani and proud to be so. Yeah, I am a proud Pakistani. Shall I repeat it? I am a Pakistani. Yes - you got me right. I am a Pakistani. Note it down somewhere - please! P-a-k-i-s-t-a-n-i. Got it..?

Unlike the national tendency to bless others with hell once you've got heaven in sight, I will display my academics after getting accepted by Gettysburg college. I applied for ED1 with 90% financial need.

SAT I: 2020 (1300 combined)
SAT II: Maths IIC 770
GPA: 3.9 (unweighted)

GCE O/A Levels: 9As, 3Bs, 1C

Best A Level result in school
100% scholarship in A Level
50-75% scholarship in O Level

My financial need was calculated to be 100% by Gettysburg and so I got in with 100% aid. PM me if you need for info, stats or help. But this as far as I go with posting in public.

Welcome back CIA!
