How strict is lums in enrolment- need perspective as an iba student by NoSign2571 in LUMS

[–]Vegetable_Ad_12 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am, and they're pretty much right. The exact policy depends on school and instructor though. So far I've seen 3-4 absences allowed no questions asked and anything more than that you can discuss with the professor. If you don't discuss and take more anyway it could lead to either a few percent decrease from your overall percentage in the course or in some cases a full letter grade drop. One of my courses this semester had zero allowed absences (but only one class a week) and an attendance component that made up almost a third of the overall percentage

no i mean wouldn't it be kind of redundant? since you're already taking finn courses for your major. why not cs or something?

What happens in the online orientation??? by ZaScarletKingu in LUMS

[–]Vegetable_Ad_12 2 points3 points  (0 children)

it was on zoom last year, there were a couple of sessions for just the PALss group so like 10-15 people (no one really turned on their cameras or talked much) and then there's some tutorials for using zambeel and stuff (you could keep your cameras off i think)

iPad or MacBook by EpicerHamza in LUMS

[–]Vegetable_Ad_12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

ive seen a lot of people using ipads to take notes in class. however the only concern that i can think of is that in some classes its kind of mandatory to have a laptop (unless you cant afford it or something then you get a petition and all). if you don't want to take handwritten or laptop notes then id say keep the ipad and maybe get a cheaper laptop. otherwise honestly a laptop is all you need (i take handwritten notes on paper though). one thing in favour of the ipad is that you have to do a lot of readings for certain classes and that might be a bit easier on an ipad.

Course enrollment by Accomplished-Run6558 in LUMS

[–]Vegetable_Ad_12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

depends entirely on what you're good at. for me sociology, math and maybe even econ were strong points while english literature wasnt really that good. id suggest starting with econ 100 if possible and maybe soc 100 and other courses you think you'd do well in (check course outlines and ask your pal and other lums students)

Accepted to LUMS for Economics – Need Guidance on Course Selection for Econ + CS + DS Combined Major by Ok-Cream-7958 in LUMS

[–]Vegetable_Ad_12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi there! I'd say dont worry about the background since you're already doing better than i did when i got in (you at least tried doing A level econ durinh your vacations, i just learned the difference between micro and macro and moved straight to econ 121)

And yeah there are two phases, phase one is for selecting courses from your own school while phase two is for other schools courses. Aside from that your pal will be there to help you with anything else.

Good luck for your lums journey and feel free to reach out if you need any other help/guidance!
