LUMS Fall 2019 Admissions (Mega-Thread)

International Students
1001

I have a high school diploma. It’s kinda tough navigating around here when every one has fsc/A level marks.

1002

I swearr theyre all like comparing how many A’s or B’s they got while im here with my 3.4 gpa. Btw what school r u from

1003

@ss302001 LUMS requires an average of B in O levels so if your overall performance in O level was fine then it would not be a problem. Good LUCK!

1004

@fmlwithoutlube BSc Accounting and Finance is their flagship program and SDSB is partnered with Harward business school so LUMS have to maintain standards that’s why merit for SDSB and especially for Accounting and finance is high.

1005

@CaptainX when did lums partner with harvard business school?..

1006

Lolll well I don’t exactly have a GPA. I’m Canadian so the system is a bit different from the American standard. Like we aren’t given GPA’s, it’s more like math 30-1 you got 88% and so on, for ever single course. I guess you could average them out but it’s like some courses are not weighted that much and are 2 credit courses while others are 5, if you catch my drift. The worse part about lums is that I don’t even know what courses they will consider, or wether they will bring down our marks and try to equate them to the Pakistani level. Cuz then our 88 might just end up being like a 76 fsc standard.

According to my conditional offer, MGHSS is the most competitive school…smh…

1008

@Dexter99 When I attended LUMS open day, I listened there. Their partnership is more like on research and publications.
