No ranks or GPA’s in school…roughly top 10% though

Work experience:

Ammar…i think its smart of us to give our weaknesses as well to get balanced advice…they dont know how many opportuinites we have…so…

Not involved in any sports
B in Urdu at olevel
not in school debate team

Also…ask whether it is better to recs from
an principal
vice principal
head of dept
graduate from a good uni(cambridge for example)

will any of these things help or will it be as good to get a rec from a teacher who knows u equally well and doesnt have any such positions…

Thanx
bye
