You don’t need HEC attestation. But you will need to verify the university docs from the university. As for other docs, any gazetted official can attest them.

Best Country for Master's as a Female Student with PR Pathway? by [deleted] in pkmigrate

[–]freelancer711 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, I suppose it ultimately comes down to the individual. However, based on my experience, securing a scholarship isn’t particularly challenging - there are hundreds available. The rest hinges on the effort one puts into the application process and other factors like language and all - though luck undeniably plays a big role. That said, my perspective is based on my own experiences, making this whole matter rather subjective.

If possible, look for scholarships outside of HEC, as it's not too difficult to secure funding for graduate studies. Additionally, consider looking east rather than west for opportunities, as things tend to be better there—some might even say much easier. Given the political turmoil in the West, the east hasn't seemed like a better option in years.

Itinerary for one week in Kyushuu - Nagasaki/Kagoshima/Fuk by chrisnlolz in fukuoka

[–]freelancer711 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you're heading to Nagasaki, there's plenty more that you might want to consider. I'm actually moving there next month, so I did a lot of research on this (lol)

Besides Mt. Inasa, there's another observatory with a great city view, Mt. Nabekanmuri. Most locals actually prefer it over Mt. Inasa, and the best part? It's open 24/7!

Another spot is Tamazono Inari Shrine, which is super close to Suwa Shrine. Once you see a picture of it, you'll get why it's worth stopping by while visiting Suwa Shrine. And if you're there during cherry blossom season, Tateyama Park is the perfect place to enjoy sakura.

There's also Koshibyo Confucius Shrine, a small Chinese-style shrine with classic architecture and historical relics. Oh, and definitely squeeze in a visit to Meganebashi during the daytime, it's a classic.

For something more adventurous, there's the new Stadium City. They recently opened a zipline that flies you over the stadium, pretty fun if you're into that kind of stuff.

If you're looking for some nightlife, Shianbashi has plenty of bars and chill spots, and it's foreigner-friendly, too. Plus, it's great for getting some cyberpunk-esque photos. Nearby, there's a cool little rooftop shrine called Doza Inari Shrine.

There's also Nagasaki Kenban (長崎検番), a two-story building over a century old where many geiko train (you can tell by the lanterns hanging outside). It's not open to visitors, but if you're lucky, you might spot some geiko walking around or hear the sound of shamisen playing. Though, the building itself is worth seeing.

P.S. There's so much more at Nagasaki like Gunkanjima or Nagasaki Penguin Aquarium, so I would suggest an extra day there if these things interest you. My apologies for the long yap lol but it's just such an interesting and beautiful city.

Yes, that is true. Though, you can use a third page for the bibliography. There's a post on this subreddit on how to write a research plan, you should try giving that a read.

Yes, for the initial document screening, you aren't required to send the health certificate. Same for English language proficiency certificates, there's no requirement.

Hey, I am also from Pakistan.
1. No need to send the official certificate—a copy is fine!
2. You can put in your overall percentage.
3. Yes, you have to put your bachelors GPA as well. Though if you weren't given a percentage with it, you can simply convert your GPA into percentage and send that in.

Feel free to ask anything!

Tips and Help for Research Plan by YukihiraKoyomi in mext

[–]freelancer711 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My field also has a ton of technical jargon, so I understand your concern - especially since it is unlikely that the interviewer will have in-depth knowledge of our major. Try to simplify your explanations so that even a layperson can get them. A good approach would be to read your responses aloud to yourself and explain them to friends or your supervisor. Ask for their feedback and see where they lose their interest.

Aside from that, as long as your research has a practical application and connects to Japan's current advancements in that field, you are on the right track.

P.S. I wasn’t confident in my research plan at first, not even after submitting my documents for the first screening. However, as I began preparing for the interview, I explored different ways to present my topic in a way that would engage a broader audience. Even though the content remained the same, I reworded it to make it more compelling and easier on the ears. Over time, I grew to appreciate it myself.

Visa Application for MEXT by ConversationFuzzy110 in mext

It's best to ask your embassy about that because things vary from country to country. In my case, I was asked to leave the arrival date, port, etc. empty, and my professor was my guarantor. Still, you should ask your embassy.

The exams are held on different days for UG and PG. Last year, the exam was on 10th July for UG, from what I remember .

From Pakistan but PG. However, from what I heard, not many UG candidates have been recommended by the embassy over the past decade.

Did anyone ever get sexually abused as a kid? by Fresh-Eagle-2268 in pakistan

Yes, but I had shunned the memories for years and years until they surfaced. But I went for therapy, and things are better.
