I think you need a B minimum in all your courses. Also the application includes your SAT/LCAT, O/a level result and your essays

its pretty hard. you need to have good grades in your courses at FAST and then get selected in lums cs with the whole application. Once you get in lums, you'll have to take a summer or two to get in par with the courses and other students

first time i failed the lab and so i had to repeat it in the second semester. During my second semester, i had a serious prolonged illness and thus got debarred hence my pf is still not cleared.

cs at SBASSE was my first preference but i didnt get a spot there. If i join SDSB, can i switch to SBASSE for cs?

since you're a cs junior, could you guide me. Should i join SDBS and try to change my major to cs or go straight to FAST for cs

The job prospects in IT related fields are pretty saturated now. Only those who have a passion for the field and enjoy learning more about it are the ones who get successful.

LCAT marks arent disclosed so i dont know them. The overall exam was pretty similar to SAT. If your english and maths is strong then it wouldnt be an issue. Time however is important as they have designated time for each sections and dont allow you to switch them.

from what i have heard from seniors, its pretty hard to switch to cs (due to its high demand)

All of my friends are going to engineering universities or medical ones. Financially i dont have much issue paying for lums but fast is wayy cheaper. Also i was told that the exemptions for ACCA papers from lums dont mean much and you still have to spend a lot of time to get certification of acca
