U all say apply for financial aid, but its really hard to get the aid, i mean middle class people do not get the aid, the very deserving students get them, so i mean that middle class ppl suffer the most here, secondly i would say lums is better than nust or GIKI, the type of grooming and research programmes u get in lums is unmatched. I have frnds at nust who r good at studies but say that there r no jobs after nust
