Agreed.

Sentence 3: Advancing medical sciences ARE. Apart from that, I don't like the idea of medical sciences TRYING to find out things. This credit must be attributed to human beings, not sciences.
agreed.
Quote:
Sentence 4: In future... generations to come... This seems redundant. You could have eliminated the words 'in future'. The dot of 'i' in diseases is missing. And I would suggest addition of the word 'only' in the end.
agreed
Quote:
Sentence 5: It could have been further shortened as: "We can only progress by preventing wars". You left many such opportunities above as well. Do you agree?
yes, I agree
Quote:
Sentence 6: Remove 'because' or use it as a conjunction to join it with the preceding sentence. 'Hardwork' is incorrect.
agree

Quote:
These are just minor mistakes I pointed out in your written English expression. Obviously, many other mistakes have been pointed out by Dr. Hassan and AFRMS, which you must take very seriously.
I am taking them seriously.In the subsequent precis, I will keep them in my mind.

I do not like your title
I have made a new one in a precis that I am posting along with this post after considering all the points that all of you told me .

Quote:
You left many opportunities to precise more. You could have easily made it to the word limit but you failed. And I did not like your hand writing much. Though it is legible, it is not attractive.
Yes I agree.I need tips to improve hand writing .

Quote:
You overwrote twice in 150 words which means you'll overwrite 40 times in an essay of 3000 words. It will look very odd.
Yes its problem with me that I expand the things rather than condensing and concising.I hope , I will overcome my this shortcomming.

In case you have any further queries, you are most welcome.

Regards,
Insha Allah and thanks

Here I am posting my precis after some changes.
