Default Pre-Med in College

Salam guys. I am 23 years old... doing Bsc in Psychology. The thing is that I have taken pre med classes in high school AND in college. Would the IBCC still deduct 20% from my gpa?

p.s. i read almost all of the threads and got to know so much. Jazak Allah Khair and Thank you so much for all the info!

it's still out of 1100. Foreigners are able to score above 900 on the equivalence even after the deduction.

i got 935/1100 in equivalence and i am a foreigner





there is no equivalence of fsc out of 880 the thing is that the maximum you can get if you are a high school grad is 880/1100 and if u have done A-levels the max u can get is 935 but that dont mean that your marks will be considered out 880 or 935
