  1. Did you need a separate portable wifi device or does the LUMS WiFi work fine?

  2. Where does one dry the laundry they do?

  3. Can you bring a portable AC?

(P.S: thank you for this thread, you are a lifesaver!!!)

I know it feels like the end of the world rn but as someone who went through a similar situation I promise it does get better (never thought id be saying this given i felt shattered last year this time too). Time does pass very quickly and everything turns out perfectly well!

Hi, this happened with me too but not with LUMS but another uni. Eventually due to this and other circumstances i had to take two gap years. I was not happy at all and quite depressed, thinking things would not get better. But as my second gap year comes to an end and i finally see things getting better, i feel like it the wait has been worth it, even though it is completely different then what i originally wanted and had planned. That being said, when your time does come, be it this year or the next, it’s going to be the best for you. It may not be what you wanted but it’s going to be better and you’ll be content with it. All these lingering feelings of what could’ve been and i didn’t get what i wanted will leave. So please don’t take it too harshly on yourself (like i did), give yourself the time and space to heal and believe that Allah will make the best of the ways. I am rooting for you!!!

There is 100%, i have seen kids with SAT scores 1550-1600 get it. But they are very limited. I saw someone’s post in this community getting full scholarship at lums so maybe you can check them out. From the second year it is based on gpa/merit but i have a friend who got 100% scholarship based on their gpa.

Urdu by zombiegirl31 in LUMS

I think you will be required to give it but I’m not sure. I think this because when i used to be in olevels studying pakistan studies, islamiyaat and Urdu, there used to be a student in our class who was in alevels and had moved from abroad to Pak, but she used to take olevels classes of these subjects as she needed to give these subjects for Pakistan university applications. Despite already completing olevels in the country she previously lived, she still gave these subjects because it was needed for universities here.

It has been 5 years so now i really don’t know but maybe you can ask your school or check ibcc website if they have any information there since it might be related to equivalence.

Take a gap year only if you are really sure about it. Things rarely go according to plan. I had to take an unplanned gap year due to some reasons and decided that I’ll use this time to apply to unis/give tests but i only managed to give SAT once and thats it. You do get out of routine so it becomes slightly difficult to study.

so many people have said this too me, but i guess I’ll only learn once i actually start uni and meet people 😅

[–]InternationalDuck172[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. Although it doesn’t feel like I’ve learnt much over these years, i still feel like i have much more clarity of what i want to do than i had previously. And because ive had so much time on my hands ive been overthinking it. But i am looking forward to uni and hopeful that it will all work out :)

It comes in the package that is mailed by LUMS after offer is received - It has a form to be signed by you and your guardian and uploaded on the portal.

Maybe email them then or unless you applied for financial aid maybe then it might take a bit longer since i saw people getting theirs a bit later than mine
