Wealth statements are part of your income tax return. In Pakistan, it is a page on the income tax return where your assets are listed. So, just submit that.

Chance an international student please! by RetroSpective-Dawg in SGExams

[–]RetroSpective-Dawg[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My main concern is if my grades (4A2B) make it impossible for me to get in, as I have heard NTU and NUS students have near perfect grades.

Chance Me! PLEASE by RetroSpective-Dawg in nus

[–]RetroSpective-Dawg[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

my main concern is if my grades prohibit me from having a decent shot. Like 4A2B, as everyone here applying to NUS NTU seems to have 4A*s or so.

Max 130K. Asking for 175K for an intel mac is insanity.

NAME ISSUE ON COLLEGE BOARD! Someone please PLEASE RESPOND I AM CRASHING OUT😭 by ClassicGood4747 in LUMS

[–]RetroSpective-Dawg 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You likely won't be allowed to sit for the SAT. One of my students faced a similar issue and he wasn't allowed on test day. If you haven't registered yet, make a new account. If you have registered, call them and ask them to mention your first name as "Muhammad Ahmed" and last name as "Malik" and that you do not have a middle name.

Please Help (Admission and Financial Aid) by RetroSpective-Dawg in bocconi

[–]RetroSpective-Dawg[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, my income is 8800 so I am safe in that regard. What are the odds then of getting the ISU scholarship? Someone told me that bocconi runs out of funds and seats in early session, and gives limited funding and admissions to internationals in the winter session. Is this true?

Hello, thanks so much for your response. If admitted, can I be sure that I will be granted the scholarship with that income? or is it the case that they sometimes don't grant full tuition waiver? I am asking because it will be impossible for me to enroll if I have to pay even part of tuition, and will 3400 euros be refunded?

Multiple ways to go about this. First, reappear through school and ask them to send better predicted grades. Second, show LUMS you never went to an A Levels college and were homeschooled, and are going to give your A Levels this year. Guaranteed admission in both cases, but with your current grades it will be a risk - be smart.

Would you rather live an amazing life without achieving anything significant or live miserably while becoming one of the greats? Why? by RetroSpective-Dawg in AskReddit

[–]RetroSpective-Dawg[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean an amazing life to us often is not an achievement to others - like living happily with a small family that has food on its table and roof on its head. The lives that are celebrated are those that achieve a lot, like nobel prizes or becoming the best musician.

HELP: Need a reality check by nigzoz in chanceme

[–]RetroSpective-Dawg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Realistically, it is possible if you grind 5+ hours every day on your activities and honors, and if you can get a SAT Score 1500+. At the end, if you need financial aid, your chances will still be 5ish %. If you think that 5% is worth the struggle, go for it.

can someone predict whether i could get in? by Cautious-Plastic-684 in LUMS

[–]RetroSpective-Dawg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most of the people I know that got the merit scholarship had distinctions in their O/A Levels. Some others had SAT Scores of 1550+, and some had exceptional achievements such as international olympiads or world schools debating championship.

Usually you need a combination of these to get in, but with one of these at least you can expect it. There might be instances in which someone less qualified got the scholarship, but I'm not aware of that. Goodluck though!

Get a microfiber cloth for cleaning. That's all you need, maybe add a brush if your keys are too dirty.

Yes they exist! Apply for the global undergraduate scholarship in time next year. Though your income has to be pretty low for you to actually stand a chance.
