To be on a safe side, keep your preparations for the entrance exams as planned because you might never know what final decisions are implemented by med schools over here in Pakistan. Just my two cents.

| 804/1100 is ACTUALLY GOOD for a foreginer
especially after they deduct 20% from ur average
for a foregeiner there is no way you can get 900+/1100
plus foreginers are only competing among foreigners

| and they don deduct 20% if uv done A levels but they deduct only 10 %
if u r not a foreigner(not holding pakistani citizenship) u compete with the rest of the punjab not among foreigners | | | |
