Did anyone call IPC recently?

no news?????

It's February and still IPC is sleeping. If no countries were going to offer scholarships, the test should not have been advertised and even if scholarships are offered, I'm sure many candidates won't be able to afford the travel expenses.

First step after selection
 

Last year merit positions were announced via telephone call in start of January and selection letters were signed and issued on 18th February, though dispatched at the end of the month and received by the candidates in first week of March . The deadline to submit the documents was 21st March.

Most of the candidates at this stage generally don't have passports which is required for the application and getting medical certificate from DHQ hospital. As IPC is late in announcement this time, you will get very less time to complete formalities. Therefore as soon as your selection is confirmed you should apply for passport using normal procedure that requires 10 working days. Details on [url]www.dgip.gov.pk[/url].

All of your educational documents need to have consistent information with your CNIC and passport. Name(and their spellings) and date of birth on all of your documents should be same. This will save you a lot of trouble. It is easier to remove inconsistencies before applying for passport than later.

Congratulations. Please share the content of this year's email here. Thanks

are they going to compile the merit list based on the different subject categories or generalized merit would be observed?

[QUOTE=Zeeeee;914783]are they going to compile the merit list based on the different subject categories or generalized merit would be observed?[/QUOTE]

General merit completely disregarding subject categories , each province has its own merit list depending on the number of seats of that province.

this is so unfair :(

[QUOTE=Zeeeee;914835]this is so unfair :([/QUOTE]
No its not. As an example consider this:
Suppose there are 5 seats for each category. 500 apply for management sciences category, 100 apply for engineering, 200 for computer science and 5 for xyz category. This way all of xyz category are selected without being tested even if they are poor performers, on the other hand many qualified applicants from other fields will not be able to secure their position on merit. That is the reason categories are disregarded and the best are chosen, irrespective of their fields.

Best are sorted out when difficulty level of papers is same.

It has nothing to do with categories. Even in same exam, people who are not able to perform well say the exam was difficult, some say it was easy. Its a losers way of crying. You cannot prove your stance legally. It wasn't your day, work hard and best of luck for future.

P.S: I am not a current applicant, the world is unfair to everyone and that's its fairness-no need to be sarcastic about it.

First things first
 

First go to your nearest government hospital for health certificate as soon as possible. All government hospital do not issue this certificate. For example in Lahore only services hospital issue this certificate and last year they demanded passport to apply. Therefore find out which hospital in your city issues such certificate and whether they need passport or not. If they need then apply for passport on urgent basis which requires 4 working days.

Salam! Any idea about merit lists?

Sent from my XT1058 using Tapatalk

I called IPC today, they said merit for Sindh R stopped at 66 marks.
I've 67 and I've received email as an alternate candidate..
I just want to ask one thing what chances do I have as an alternate candidate to be selected for this scholarship.

[QUOTE=fahadk;914864]No its not. As an example consider this:

this means the country does not need a scholar in xyz category.
and only people in social and management sciences will get most scholarship awards...

Anyone from kp who had received email?.

anyone having performa for recommendation letter?

[QUOTE=Zeeeee;915065]this means the country does not need a scholar in xyz category.

Yes the country does not want to invest on someone who is not worthy of becoming a scholar. Country want to send best of their talent abroad for exposure, and not someone who cannot qualify a test. Another reason is the admission criteria of host country and university. Its not like all forwarded applications are accepted by host country, therefore no point of forwarding an application which cannot secure admission, its just waste of seat which wouldn't have been wasted if some other category's competitive application was forwarded.

So in short, even if all 5 applicants of xyz category are selected by IPC, they will not be able to secure admission if they don't have a great profile, resulting in waste of seats which could have been avoided if only competitive applicants from xyz category were selected, but rest seats were utilized by other categories. That's exactly what current selection process does, testing applicants in their own categories yet making overall merit to minimize the wastage of seats.

People who are receiving emails have just passed the first round of scrutiny, few more to go.
