IM|Sciences and its exams` culture


Recently my friend called me and asked if I could visit him. It sounded a bit cliché when I said NO cause I have to appear in an exam starting next week. His judgment was not wrong too because it was happening the third time in last THREE months. But thats IM|Sciences you have to be ready for it both mentally and physically.
 Each week we have three days long weekend but there will be so much work load that at the end you will utter oh gosh the weekend is over. Then at the start of fifth week or at the end of Fourth week we have an exam. And what can I say how much different this exam is? Sir Shah Nawaz once himself said in a lecture that teachers of IM|Sciences will teach you how to cook rice but in exam they will ask you how to cook biryani and what are the factors which has increased the demand of biryani and substituted Kabali polao :D
 We are now in preps of our comprehensive exam i.e. final exam of the semester after having two hectic weeks of presentations and assignments.  You cannot just copy assignments from Wikipedia and paste it there, they will check for plagiarism.  While during presentations it is not considered sufficient if you merely read out from the slides, besides you will have to explain it, else you will lose marks.
People of other universities specifically IM|studies of Peshawar university presume our institute as a DamKhana but they really don`t know what is the criterion of surviving in IM|sciences. You have to keep your marks above 62% otherwise you will get "dropped out" no matter in which semester you are. This 62% minimum marks requirement of staying here serves as  First division in Peshawar University and those who get it are really proud of it.

On one hand IM|sciences allows you to practice LIBERAL things like singing, dances, concerts, parties, funfair , festivals, events like kaliwal days but on the other hand they have the toughest schedule of exams and once your result is displayed on the notice board you just can’t change it by hook or crook. They have the most honest, strict and never compromising staff over there to monitor everything is in the line of rules.

I am sorry my friends I might not receive your calls or visit you till 24th of this month. We are in the season of hibernation.
Good luck to my class fellas and all other university mates.

  6. Not that I mean to patronize you or anything, but i'd like to add that being in a professional school entitles you to such tough schedules.

    When the SAME environment is enforced upon us in foreign universities we happily accept them but when it is provided to us in our local environments we start complaining. I'd rather applaud for our university for keeping us at bay with such schedules.

    Don't get me wrong, I love a relaxing weekend and what not but on the other hand I really don't want to feel, like, the degree i'm getting has been given to me as a pure gesture of pity. I want to feel like i've actually earned it, and i've worked for it - This way, atleast I can be PROUD of the work i've put in it.

    Enjoy the music ... one day you will recall this time as best moments of your lives.

  11. Well I think this monthlies system is better than having mid-term instead of three monthlies which gets very burdened like you'll have to cover more course that you already would do in monthlies. Besides that we have a choice of skipping a monthly so it's not a biggie. It works for both competent and non-competent guys for that they have a chance to survive ;)
