*Ahsan Ismail : I want to become an electrical
engineer and dream of studying at LUMS. I think the procedure to check exam
paper should be improved. I think entry tests are good as they check the
students' calibre. Poverty and illiteracy are Pakistan's basic problems. We
should find the root causes of suicide attacks and terrorism to effectively
eradicate them.
*Maryam Javed : I think our education system
is improving and I am satisfied with it. I want to become an electrical engineer
and have already gained admission to LUMS. Entry tests should be held, but their
percentage of requirement should be reduced and students should not be afraid of
them. I condemn extremists because they kill innocent people.
*Waqar
Ali : I also want to become an electrical engineer. I don't like the
double standards of our education system. There should be uniformity in the
country's education system. I think entry tests are an unnecessary burden on the
students. Terrorists are deprived people and they can be brought into the
mainstream if we address their problems.
*Wardah Malik : I
want to become a doctor and want to gain admission to King Edward Medical
University (KEMU). The entry tests are a hurdle in the talented students' way of
obtaining admission into good colleges. Pakistan's education system should be
improved, especially at the matric level. I don't think suicide attackers should
be called Muslims because Islam is the religion of peace.
*Affira
Atta : I want to become an architect and want a degree in the best
institution in this field. We need to improve our education system and bring it
at par with international standards. The current system should be abolished
because it supports cramming and not learning. Terrorists and suicide attackers
are defaming Islam and Pakistan and should be stopped.
*Mariam
Baig : The marking system of entry tests is unsatisfactory because it
deprives hundreds of students from getting admitted to good colleges. I want to
become a doctor and to get admission in KEMU. Our education system should be
brought at par with international standards. The government should try to solve
the problems of terrorists to end terrorism.
*Hadia Sajjad : The entry test system should be abolished. I want to become an
electrical engineer and will try to gain admission in the best institution.
Pakistan's greatest problems are extremism and the prevailing political crisis.
Both issues are tarnishing our country's name internationally. The government
should hold talks with the extremists and solve the issue.
*Sana Qadeer : I want to become an economist and also want a degree in
management sciences. The entry tests should be abolished as they ruin 12 years
of the students' hard work in just two hours. I am satisfied with our education
system, but it can be improved. Terrorism is maligning Muslims and Pakistanis
across the world. Daily Times

"the toper of hssc got 1024 marks. in my opinion it was wrong to be soo leanent in marking with the students of lhr board because other boards of punjab are not so leanent and their students dont get enough marks. so when these students who got less marks as compare to lhr board appear in entry test then there is a large gap between there numbers. merit goes so high only because of leanent marking of some boards and eligible student could not occupy the place that they deserve. so all boards should have same criteria of paper checking and there should be only one paper of a perticular exam through out the pakistan."

"the education system of pakistan is unsatisfactory.sometimes marks are gained by students by hook or.this is not of much value.my view about entry test is that negative marking should not be included bz it is major cause of reducing number to gain in entry test.if entry test is not necessary then merit should be start from 890\1100."

Humanaties students lose English grades
Lahore: Only 26.24 per cent candidates of the humanities group could pass
the intermediate English examination, exposing the declining standard of arts
education.
According to the result gazette issued by the Board of
Intermediate and Secondary Education (BISE) Lahore, last year 38.83 per cent
private candidates and 67.94 per cent regular candidates passed the English
examination. This year only 17.98 per cent of private candidates of humanities
group passed this paper while the pass-ratio of regular candidates is 37.56 per
cent.
Science group students, however, showed some consistency in their
performance in the subject of English. Last year, 97.97 per cent of pre-medical
group students (regular) passed English examination while 87.18 private students
cleared this exam. This year, 95.45 per cent of regular students passed English
examination while the pass rate of private students was 83.10 per
cent.
Among pre-engineering group students, 97.30 per cent regular
students passed the English examination last year and 81.32 private students
cleared this exam. This year, the pass rate of regular students is 92.03 and
that of private students is 82.25 per cent.
A comparative study of
Science Group and Humanities Group shows that science students usually score
higher than humanities group students in English examination.
Sabahat
Hussain Naqvi, the former incharge of the Department of English Language and
Literature, Government MAO College, said that arts students performed poorly
because they were neglected despite the fact that arts studies were as important
as sciences.
He said that the pass rate of arts students should be
higher than of science students as English was one of the major subjects for
them. "But the situation is opposite here," he said adding that "special
attention must be paid on humanities group students".

'BISE refuses Rs .2m award to disabled girl'
Lahore: PML-Q parliamentarian Ayesha Javed on a point of order in the
Punjab assembly has alleged that Lahore Board of Intermediate and Secondary
Education (BISE) has not provided Rs 200,000 to a female disabled student
despite a promise by the chief minister.
She was of the view that Chief
Minister Mian Shahbaz Sharif had invited the disabled female student who got
position in BISE exams to the Chief Minister's House where he had announced Rs
200,000 for her as a reward.
Ayesha Javed alleged that the Director
General Public Relations department was pressurising the family of the girl to
give a statement to the media that she had received the amount but the girl had
refused to give such a statement.
She claimed that the Lahore BISE
officials had conveyed to the family of this female student to receive a cheque
of Rs 10,000, as they did not have sufficient amount.
Responding to her
allegation, law Minister Rana Sana Ullah Khan was of the view that it was not
possible on the part of BISE officials to deny the amount to the girl.
However, he assured the House that he would look into the matter and
would ensure the provision of promised amount to the female student. Rana Sana
Ullah Khan further announced that Chief Minister Mian Shahbaz Sharif has
announced to award Rs 200,000 to all the students who got top positions in
FA/FSC examination. The News
