Still wonder how, with so many so-called 'toppers', the country is in this state. It's a mystery what the education system is achieving

@Light at the end of the tunnel, b/c these toppers work outside Pak, mostly. Also the total number of these toppers is negligible compared to that in other countries.

Congratulations to the students. However, how can more than 1 person get the highest marks? Only 1 person can get highest marks.

CAIE is a disgrace, they only prepare students to go overseas, it's causing brain drain. Pakistan is not getting any advantage, rather losing money which is also going in the pockets of UK, unfortunately. Nothing to cheer about.

I am proud of Pakistani students who have scored highest marks in Cambridge Exams.
The govt should push all these students by awarding scholarships and send them for higher studies in developed countries.
On other hand one should also look after the unprivileged students who are intelligent and working hard to complete their studies, but due to financial constrains they can't afford to pay Cambridge exams fees
Let us find out those intelligent students and help them in achieving their goals.

No use. Without a good character all the education is zero.

@Light at the end of the tunnel, because almost almost all of them will leave the country in the next few years to study abroad and just stay there. To be honest, most of these folks get private education for which their parents pay hefty amounts so they don’t really owe anything to the state

@Light at the end of the tunnel, Because they don't do anything for country.
They will go abroad, get degrees from there and will get lucrative offers from companies and then will spend rest of their lives serving others.

@Light at the end of the tunnel, Those whose family can afford it are sent abroad for University and don't come back due to the lack of basic amenities and low pay.
Those who can't afford it try to get into university locally and struggle to get a decent job after graduation. Why? Merit is not the criteria. Sifarish and bribery is the only way.
