My name is Anas and i am from The Lyceum School, Karachi. I had
7As, 2 Bs in O levels and 2 AS level As (out of 2 subjects). My
problem is that I am confused between BSc Economics (and going beyond
that) or CA. My question is that can I do BSc in Accounting and
Economics and become a CA after that? Or going forward to MSc
Economics? Which colleges in the UK and Canada would you recommend?
 Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Anas

My name is Saira. I completed A Levels last Jan. I am looking fwd to come to TX. I plan to go to college first and get done with all the core courses but I don’t know any good colleges in Texas.

Furthermore, what are the requirements to get into a college? How many credit hours one needs in order to transfer to a good university? My interest is in Fashion Designing and I want to know the scope of fashion designing in U.S

Well-Wisher,
Saira

Hi,
My name is Shahrukh from The Lyceum School and I’m currently in my A-levels first year. I got 7A’s and 2B’s in my O’levels. Currently,I have Accounts, Economics, Mathematics and General Paper as my subjects. I am appearing for Mathematics and Economics AS level this june. I intend to do MBA or Masters in Economics(M.E) which leads us to our first question whether MBA or M.E has a better scope in Pakistan and abroad?

I, like many others aspire to get enrolled in a good and reputed university abroad. However,more than half way through my A-Level first year i realized that my subject combination isnt good enough to get me into good universities abroad like LSE which does not give importance to Accounts and demands traditional sciences like Psychology so now i am in a fix. Are there any other renowned universities abroad which offer MBA or M.E and accept students having the subject combo that i have?

If there are such universities,then what is there criteria for scholarships ?

Also, do all reputed business schools in the U.S require SAT II or is SAT I good enough for admissions? What is the average SAT score that such business schools demand?

My name is Abbas Tejani and I am currently studying at The Lyceum School.

I got 10 A in O’Levels (St.Patricks High School).  I am currently in my first year of A levels. Subjects that I have are: Economics, Accounts, Accelerated Maths, Psychology and General English(mandatory). I plan to give further maths privately next year.

Choosing a career is the most important step. Ive deecided to go into the field of Acturial Sciences.

My queries include:

1) Is it a good choice?
2) What scope does it have in pakistan and abroad?
3) Which universities provide acturial sciences programmes in pakistan and abroad(prefebly canada or uk)
4) How much financial aid is available( especially in canada)
5) What courses would i have to take?
6) How much time does it take to become a full fledge acturier?

Hi,

My name is Anas and I am studying accounting, economics and mathematics for my A’Levels at The Lyceum. I will be giving my AS exam this june of maths and economics. I got 7 A’s and 2 B’s in my O’Levels.

I basically have two questions:

1. Can a person who has a degree in accounting from the US work in Pakistan? What about UK and Canada?
2. Furthermore, will only 3 subjects suffice to get me an admission or will i need a fourth one? If yes, which one would you recommend?
3. What course of study should opt for if I want to become a Chartered Accountant?

p.s i am giving all four components of maths in the first year. Normally, only two components are given in he first year and other two in the final year.
