Oh now i get it...the jerks at HEC changed the darn application form! Since I downloaded the application long time ago, I have the OLD app. and i downloaded from the same page where now they have the new application....the one i have asks all these pathetic questions whether i have glands, lids, and what my red blood cell and white cell count is and what is my rate after I hop for 1 minute 5 minutes...!!!! Are we going to the space or someting...anyways here is actual application that you need to fill out for HEC after you have received your provisional Equivalent Certificate from IBCC.

yea i had the same problem too.........as for the photo problem, ull only need 5, one for application.........i brought 20 with me but they gave 15 back(i went to the hec office)

 

[taimur]

looks like this years admissons cycle is abt finished...

 

[Junnat]

Well obviously since the last date for submiting documentations to IBCC and HEC was August 31st so the process has ended a long time ago. Others who have completed their application process are now waiting for the results to be posted on HEC wesite to see who got in and in what category...under Self-Finance or PTAP....anyways good luck to all of you hopefully things will work out for you and me. Pray and Fast everyday and oh yes Ramadan Mubarak!!

 

[taimur]

Salaam. I have a question ... can u stil get into govt. med colleges if ur grades arent that good. I mean can everyine be under self finance

 

[MastahRiz]

Not everyone is guaranteed a seat just because it's the "self-finance" seats. Grades and the IBCC Equivalence score will still directly influence the admission process.

alhamdullilah

WOW!!! I cant believe it but ALHAMDULLILAH I have gotten in at DOW INTERNATIONal MEDICAL COLLEGE in KARACHI!!!

LEt me tell u bout my experience:
so when i went to the IBCC they made so many objections that i was ready to come back to US. My dad told me to just have patience. After literally crying twice and asking Allah for help. I finally got in. DUA: "rabbi inni maghloboona fantasir lahum" basically meaning that allah i have done everything i can so now i leave it up to u to help me. very useful.

the experience was one of a kind and U just have to try it urself to know how hard it is to get admission without any bribing or connections.

admission in US is so EASY!!! ALSO THANKS A LOT to everyone who is a member of this site. if it wasnt for u all it would have been impossible!

JAZAKALLAH KHAIRIN (especially rehan bahi and the staff for making this site)

this year all u needed was a minimum 660\1100 equivalence and you had to give the sat2.........to get into DOW which a very few people did........there were seats left over

lectures taught in bad english, people asking for bribes, and countless people who dont speak proper english and will mock you all the time saying "Why did you come to Pakistan for studies" AND stares from others constantly wondering how much money you have and how many girls and clubs you danced around in your magical UMreekan life.

OK now this is freakyy #sad Maybe considering med school in pakistan was a bad idea after all. :sniff:

haha I was slightly exaggerating dont let me scare you off. There are a lot of foreigners who totally blend in, specially the canadian mummy/daddy girls who know flawless urdu.

If your pretty western though but dont mind dressing down and keeping a low profile, you will do just fine..

 

[Fatima]

thanks...i can speak urdu but at home i speak punjabi. Do we need to know how to read and write urdu as well?

 

[MastahRiz]

no.

 

[Fatima]

thank god *sigh* generally do foreigners u know have a good experience while in pakistan? Are the dorms really crappy?

 

[maik7upurz]

some have good experiences, others dont and yes govt dorms are crappy... very crappy... the crapiness factor varies between colleges though and private/public

 

[Fatima]

thanx for the reply...i just talked to my cousins in pak today...both are in fatima jinah and i waz telling them that the #1 factor which is stopping me from going to med school in pak is living far away from home and not knowing anyone....so they told me that if i come to fatima jinaah i could live in the same room as them cause they have no restrictions...1st..2nd..3rd yr students can live in one room if they want to....so i really wanna get into fatima jinnah otherwise its going to be tough for me as a foreigner...plus they're my seniors and i'll get some good advice from them....chalo inshallah hopefully things will happen for the best....

right now i just need to concentrate on getting a good average before june!! -__-

 

[taimur]

you can speak punjabi?! then ull do pretty fine

 

[maik7upurz]

ya most people in med school in pindi dont know punjabi lol
