Then you submit your equivalence certificate along with your applications to the schools of your choice.

ok so let me get this straight..
after u've gotten ur equivalency certificate, u apply to the college of ur choice...
so when do u apply for the PTAP/Self finance schemes??

The forms for SFS/Self-Finance usually have dead lines of August 31 or September 1. It varies from year to year, so the only way to know for sure is to check the HEC or EAD websites/forms for the year in which you wish to apply. The forms are usually released by June of the same year (through the EAD and HEC websites)

For school profile and abbreviation of the subjects, your school should have a syllabus or general information sheet that outlines the basic information about your high school, including its address, mission statement, letter grading policy, subjects offered, etc. Just ask for a general syllabus or whatever the related informational brochure might be at your high school. Get a few copies and attach one along w/the rest of your IBCC application documents. That basically covered those two requirements for me when I applied last year.

Good job, that should help speed up the process and hopefully ensure that you won't miss any deadlines. Make sure you attach all the required documents the IBCC/EAD/HEC ask for so that they don't bug you at the last minute and make a fuss about not taking in your application.

Well, i have all my stuff gathered and ready to be sent to pakistan to IBCC, but before i do that, i have some general questions.
So, far i have my diploma and a copy of it, which is notarized. An early graduation letter with three copies. My transcript sealed with school information sheet. A copy of NIC, which is notarized as well. Two passport sized photographs. Well, my passport is sent out to be renewed, but i dont have the copy of it though. So, will they still accept my documents. Do you think i need anything else? Is attested and notarized the same thing?
thank guys

Well if you were planning on mailing everything to IBCC anyways I'd suggest that you give your school the rest of your documents, have them make the official transcript and then pay for tracked shipping so that everything arrives at the IBCC office together.

If you don't send an official transcript IBCC will definitely make a big stink about it, but since they send a confirmation letter back to the high school anyways to make sure that all the documents are legit it might be ok...It may slow down the process and you will probably have to argue with the IBCC people, because they like to accuse people of doing FRAAAUD.

AP tests are technically external examinations.

When high school teachers who know you give you exams and grades it is considered an internal examination system because they can be biased. Tests such as SATs and APs are considered external exams because they are conducted and graded by a third party.
