Kunfuzed101 is here to answer you ?'s about medical school admission in Pakistan.

<p>^ Concerning your post(s) akhan, I am not studying in Pakistan anymore and I attended all my schooling inc. currently college here in the U.S. I applied to medical school in 2005 after putting my studies on hiatus. I went to Pakistan and my parents and I were not guided through the admission process. Apparently Pakistani people have a bad habit of either telling you misleading information or falseifying information. Anywho - I had the honor of undergoing the tedious medical admission process as a foreign applicant in the U.S. I was accepted to K.E., went there for a year, then left and came back to the U.S. to continue my college education the following year. And yes I do believe that the IBCC’s measure of deducting 20% of U.S. student grades is an unethical, senseless measure. From what I have been told, they do this because from what they believe: the U.S. education system is to easy. Yeah, pardon my use of vulgar language but that is pure bulls***! I have not been to Karachi but I have done my research on the medical schools in Sindh. I have however seen and visted all of the medical schools private and government in Faisalabad, Lahore, and Army Medical College which is affiliated with NUST University in Rawalpindi. AMC is a mere three to four minute from the Islamabad City Limits. Moreover I have come to know several Pakistani medical school graduates and dropouts who went to college or high school in the U.S. and pursued or were to pursue a career in Medicine. Speaking of AMC, you in luck. I have not been to the hostel, but I have seen the campus from outside during my trip to Rawalpindi in 2006. Hostel accomodations vary from school to school. From my personal exp. they usually pair you up with another foreign roomate. Also since you pay higher tuition fees certain accomadations such as air conditioning can be met (with an extra monthly fee). Akhan my best advice to you would be to finish college. With a B.A. or B.S. (whatever you choose to do) then apply to a Pakistani medical college. This may seem like your defeating the purpose because after all, applicants go to Pakistan so they can become an M.D. in the smallest amount of time and money, but I feel in your situation you would have much better luck if you pulled your grades at least to an A in physics, chemistry, bio, math. From personal exp. I submitted my college grades/transcript but the admission committee chose not to look at them because I was not finished with college. So I applied on the basis of my high school grades. I know someone who went to college in the U.S. for two to three years and then applied to Aga Khan w/o a degree. I’m not sure if this applicant got in, but I have a feeling that this is possible. Truthfully I am speaking from both personal experience and the guidelines of medical school admission as mandated by the PK govt. I would advise you to somehow contact the Pakistani Embassy - many applicant here in the U.S. either apply to medical school from them or they personally know someone in Pakistan i.e. Relatives that complete the process on their behalf.</p>
