[QUOTE=Ammarrashid;1057600]Did they give a segregated merit list last year(Like its this year) or was it combined?[/QUOTE]
No merit list was uploaded last year, only the final shortlisted list was uploaded.
Also, it doesn't matter if NTS posts a segregated or combined merit list because NTS is not the one giving the scholarship, they are only taking the test. they are going to send the result to IPC and then IPC is going to make the merit list according to them, which is usually combined.

If they follow a combined merit list 85 percent scholarships would go to social sciences, that would be very absurd.

I scored 80 in social science and in no way ready to accept that a topper of management sciences is preferred over me. That would be unfair to my efforts. There is no objective way to say that MS topper of 76 is more competitive than 80 of SS who is 12th in his province. Last time, 75 seats were taken by computer subject students, and some provinces had only students from computer background.

And how will IPC accommodate 8 subjects in provinces that have 5 seats? Also, suppose, if one province has 9 seats, this means 1 seat each for 7 subject and 2 seats for the 8th subject. Now which subject will get to have 2 seats and on what basis? You can either have quota on the basis of province or on the basis of subject. It cant be both. And provincial quota is mostly applied as the ministry deals with inter provincial coordination.

Any updates on the china government scholarship?

Hahahaha.
Calm down. They will apply provincial quota. No one is going to snatch your seat as they know you will murder them in their sleep. :D
Goodluck for your selection. :)

I just checked, there were almost 117 people who qualified for the field of computers last year, containing both alternate and principle candidates. So they might not segregate by field after all.

I got an email from ipc, anyone else recieved it?
