Shafqat Mahmood announces decision on IBCC equivalence for A-Levels

 

ISLAMABAD, DEC 31 - Federal Education Minister, Shafqat Mahmood, has instructed the Inter Board Committee of Chairmen (IBCC) to grant provisional equivalence certificates to A-levels students.

According to details, the equivalence certificates will be issued before 19 January 2021 and will be based on previous exam results.

To all A level students. I have asked IBCC to issue provisional equivalence certificates based on previous exam results before Jan 19 so that they can apply for admission to medical and professional colleges. Applications can be made through TCS or personally to IBCC offices

The step is aimed to enable A-levels students to apply to Pakistani educational institutions.

Students can submit applications for provisional equivalence certificates to IBCC through courier as well as in person.

Note that IBCC, last month, had partnered with a courier company to collect and return the applications for equivalence certificates at the doorsteps of the students.
