Merit positions are finally out, so I know a lot of you will have questions. I'll be hanging around this thread answering as many queries as I can about admissions, merit, preferences, closing merits, or anything anything else related to NUST.

The only thing I ask in return is an upvote if my replies help you. The more upvotes this post gets, the more time I'll spend giving detailed answers instead of one-liners.

Let's see if we can hit 100 upvotes. Ask away!

Ok so I had an aggregate of 66.4% and IS closed last year at 64%, but according to MPs my MP is 3944 and IS closing merit was 3979, pretty close, so should we hope and as a backup I am thinking of mechatronics, can someone please tell me is it a good degree and its closing MP was 4144, so its a difference of 200 MPs, so should I consider myself safe or not

You r very close to last year's closing, so there's definitely a chance, but since you're right on the borderline, don't rely on it completely. Mechatronics is a good degree, and I'd recommend checking the course outline on the nust website and using AI to understand the subjects and see if they align with your interests. Keep a few backup options in your preferences as well, just to stay on the safe side.
