First thing about Pakistan: Its a 3rd world developing underdeveloped country. Broadband is expensive and the bandwidth and quality sucks. Poverty is very high, literacy rate is low and lots of health hazards lurk here and there. Main facilities like electricity and water often dwindle.

In KEMU the methods of teaching and examining are very old. The resources for audio visual aids are limited, but they are improving.

Now if any American still wants to read on, then KEMU gets the top ~200 students from the whole Punjab. So one can expect a sense of real competitiveness. The attached hospital is the best in Punjab in terms of facilites and faculty.

In short the best thing is that Basal level of common sense is very high. But you would find some really weird kids here like me who failed in there professionals...

This is what i can think of right now. Hope this helps.
