British Council undergrad results likely this week
KARACHI, Aug 28: The undergraduate results
for UK colleges via the British Council are expected within the week.
"We
will be dispatching the undergraduate results to all colleges within the week,
the result was due after Aug 25 but due to delays keeping in consideration a lot
of factors, the results have been delayed till the last week of August or even
early September," said a British Council representative, Usman.
Students
are impatiently awaiting their final year results. Final-year LLB student Ammara
Saeed said that she had already received an unconditional offer from
the Bar. "The BVC starts September and if the results are delayed it leaves me
with very little time to make arrangements for my visa, tickets and most
importantly to find a place to stay while I'm there," she said, adding that her
fellow students were just as worried. "We are stuck in limbo here; we have
acceptance letters and we don't even know if we have cleared our papers
yet."
Students have been bombarding their academic programme coordinators
with phone calls. "A lot of rumors have been going around that the results have
been dispatched to schools already, I assure you that is not the case, if it
were so the students would have received their results by now," said Usman.
Final-year BSc student Summaira Ali said the entire experience was
stressful. "They should set a date each year for all results so that there is no
confusion," she suggested. The agony usually starts after August 15 as students
wake up each day not knowing if the results are out or not.
Saad
Siddiqui, another LLB second-year student said, "Some of us might have not done
that well in our papers and might be dreading the result, for all the money we
spend on these external programs with the registrations and continuing
registrations for the universities, the British Council fee and tuition fee for
our colleges, it's only fair that we get our results on a fixed date every
year."
Usman explained that weather conditions may delay the results
further but they will be given out to all cities at the same date in Karachi,
Lahore and Islamabad. Daily times
