Re: Advice for a Brit about Pak Education
if you have studied, A and O levels in Britain, and you know which coll or univ you would like to apply to in Pakistan, you should be alright as long as you have a B+ grade point avg.
After THESE two replies, I would say do it in Pakistan. 
Zobia & Aminas: READ means “to GRASP the meaning of”.
Im looking to bring my brother to Pakistan to complete his A level education.

Re: Advice for a Brit about Pak Education
sorry, Fraudia bhai. i truly did not answer to all the queries asked. so nilybing, it will be best for you to visit the school where you would want to send your brother.
the best thing, again will be to see which school will accept his education from UK.
Re: Advice for a Brit about Pak Education
You are assuming that your brother will be able to get into one of these elite private schools. They usually have long waiting lists of people willing to "donate" significant amounts to get their kids in there.
^ Not in Froebels or Beaconhouse, I know because they dont need donations, they're very viable (mainly because they charge an arm and a leg)! However, with that said, they do offer scholarships for the Alevels program. Back in my time, 8As or above, full scholarship, dont have to pay a single paisa.
Re: Advice for a Brit about Pak Education
Ms. Dushwari there is no such thing as O level any more, they are called G.C.S.E's.
of course Khurshid Mehmood Kasuri runs chain of Beacon house schools, nor some lallu panjuu :halo:
Go for Cadet College Hasanabdal. IF hes done his O'levels with good grades, he'll get in. I believe they do take some students only for A'levels, just like they take some students with good matric results. He'll spend two years in one of the best educational institutions,,, will make great friendships... develop as a person, play competitive sport, take part in extra curricular activities and will fit in just fine (there is a small chance he might turn gay though) kidding about the last bit :D
I'd go for CCH! spending two yrs doing A levels with some of the brightest cookies would be a great thing for him... but its a boarding school, so you'll have to send him there and see him once a month or whatever.
Ms. Dushwari there is no such thing as O level any more, they are called G.C.S.E's.
In some countries, they still have the G.C.E. O'Levels... Pakistan being one.
the GCSEs are only offered in a few countries... I had transferred from the Emirates where I was in the GCSE system to Pakistan in the O'Levels.
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.
