  1. none of the single student is responsible for this mess.. only the UET institute itself is responsible . They tried to support their own boys but it got exposed. dont u immagin that thousands of students traveled from near by areas . they were not all rich enough to mannege their own convince . But they all came only to test thir fate .
    The student of our country is considered as the most intelligent student in the WORLD but with such UNFORGIVEABLE acts he is un able to tell that he is Graduated from PAKISTAN.
    I request the VC of UET to solve this problem…….
    >>>>>the best solution is that your test weights 70% F S.c and 30% entry test .
    Cancel all the tests and give admission on the basis of F S.c result.
    >>>> IF you dont do this then it means that U dont beliieve our degree. which is given by u. i hope u will understand …………….

  2. This is bullshit, UET always induct students on merit and based on single incident in 87 years, it is out of senses to say which Hasan khan is saying. All five fingers are not equal so their are bad people also but the good thing is that the admission shall be ultimately be given on merit after taking the test again.

  4. Entry test is only the business nothing else .people in thousands came to give the test from Khanewal etc. but they are tensed from such unforgivable act . What would the would say that how much irrisponsible we are ,we cold not even kept secret.
    entry test must be baned………………..
