Re: Advice for a Brit about Pak Education
im not so sure bout A levels in pakistan. why not do them in the UK? he's there already.
i did the first part of my o levels in froebels and my bro did his a levels and it was teh most depressing time of our educational lives. we were not at all used to pakistani politics in schools and how differently things were done. we were educated in private british schools in jeddah and never had we witnessed such horrible standards in schools.. froebels was a topnotch school at that time... yes there were position holders in final exams and kids taht did well.. but i think the move and the cultural shock was too much for us kids. and we hated the fact that some teachers ran their own tuition centres and were reluctant to give u great marks unless you went to their coaching centres in the evenings.. i moved to OPF (which was WAY BETTER) to finish my first year of o levels but my brother had to stick with froebels to do his a levels.
frobels to me was a dacare centre for children of the rich and corrupt.
i wouldnt suggest ure brother make the move unless he is well versed with desi culture, politics and is an extraordinary student.
